North America’s largest Electric vehicle festival, the Electrify Expo, has begun! Fun for all ages and interests, the Electrify Expo is a weekend festival that lets you ride, drive, and demo the World’s Top Electric Vehicles, E-Motorcycles, E-Bikes, E-Scooters, E-Skateboards, and more. The series of 5 expo events kicked off in early June in Long Beach, but there are still three event weekends left.

The series continues August 27-28, 2022 in Long Island, New York at the Nassau Coliseum. You can buy tickets starting at $20, kids 5 and under are free, and both days run from 10am-5pm with plenty to experience and do. Kia stars in Electrify Expo 2022 and you could be a part of an electric vehicle, and Kia, history–how cool is that?! The next dates include October 8-9 in Miami, Florida at Regatta Park (same details as Long Island), then the long awaited Austin, Texas expo and Industry day on November 11-13  at the Circuit of Americas.

Industry Day With Electrify

This event will occur on August 11th from 8am-4pm, full of panels of industry professionals. Tickets are $59-$249, but the event collects a powerful mix of automotive. Micro-mobility, autonomous vehicle, energy, charging, and all around technology, city planning, and media professionals are all under the same roof. Everyone can interact through keynotes, panels, featured speakers, and press conferences. Attendees to the normal expo and Industry Day will experience the newest EV industry trends and network with speakers from the most recognized brands in the industry!

Kia Stars in Electrify Expo

Kia is one of the big names appearing at the Expo among BMW, Chrysler, Lexas, Porsche, Volkswagen, Volvo, Bird, Onewheel, and Lime. Eric Watson, vice president of sales operations for Kia America, states, “The impact that the Electrify Expo events will have on us cannot be overestimated. Kia is the third best-selling manufacturer of EV vehicles in the U.S. thus far in 2022 and we are proud to collaborate with our industry colleagues to chart the best path forward and help shape the future of the automotive industry.” 

Here’s a sneak peek: as a part of their “Plan S” strategy, Kia will establish a 14 EV model lineup by 2027. Additionally, the star of the show, Kia’s EV6, will grace Electrify. The all electric, zero emissions vehicle is truly an innovation that inspires. Experience the driver-centric cockpit, Dual Panoramic Screens, an available Augmented Reality Head-up Display, the spaciousness of a 5-passenger crossover, and up to 310 miles of EPA estimated all-electric range on a single charge first hand! The vehicle also charges up to 80% in 18 minutes at a public fast charging station, which is faster than most electric vehicles.
