Event Report

Our spring Earth Day event was a more intimate event vs the spring event. We had an amazing indoor space hosted by Immaculate Paint Protection which allowed us to bring 3 cars inside their clean well-lit shop. We were able to have a BMW i3 charging on display as well as a new Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model X. Outside, we had a Jaguar I-PACE, Tesla's and Nissan Leaf's giving test rides.

For Earth day, Immaculate Paint Protection demonstrated an eco-friendly waterless / rinse-less wash. This method uses significantly less water than regular washing and provides excellent results.

A few test rides were given with the Tesla Model 3 on a pretty curvy section of road, fully done in Autopilot. This really impressed the passengers how the car could accurately control speed and steering through this challenging section of road with ease.
