Charlotte Alternative Fuels Vehicle Ride & Drive

This drop‑in event is designed to help government agencies, utilities, and commercial fleet operators explore next‑generation transportation solutions. Attendees will have the opportunity to test drive alternatively fueled vehicles and engage directly with providers of heavy‑, medium‑, and light‑duty technologies, along with emerging micromobility options.

For vendors and technology partners, this event provides a unique forum to connect with fleet managers and decision‑makers who are shaping the region’s long‑term strategy for cleaner, more efficient operations.
