Arkansas groups push for more electric vehicle awareness

KUAR | By Remington Miller

Several energy and environmental groups collaborated on Saturday at an event geared toward educating Arkansans about electric vehicles.

Audubon Delta hosted “Drive Electric for Earth Day” outside the Little Rock Zoo. Owners of electric vehicles stayed on-site to answer questions and display the features of their cars.

Glen Hooks, Audobon Delta Arkansas policy manager, said in an interview the event was needed to allow people to interact with the vehicles.
