CALSTART and CARB’s Zero-Emissions Showcase + Ride & Drive made a powerful impact at Angel Stadium in Anaheim drawing over 900 participants for a full day of hands-on test drives, cutting-edge technology showcases, and informative workshops.
This event marked our most-attended Ride & Drive to date, bringing together a record number of industry leaders, policymakers, fleets, and manufacturers to explore the latest innovations in clean transportation. The impressive turnout underscored the growing excitement and strong momentum driving zero-emissions progress in California.
