The electric vehicle (EV) exhibition organized by the Saskatchewan Electric Vehicle Association (SEVA) took place at the Bunge International Trade Centre in Regina. SEVA, a non-profit group, aims to educate residents on EVs, which have seen a rise in popularity despite Saskatchewan having the second lowest adoption rate in Canada at 2.6%. President Jerilyn Nixon noted that while most charging occurs at home, locations like Canadian Tire and Victoria Square Mall are also popular. Nixon highlighted the growing interest in EVs, with medium-sized cities beginning to invest in charging infrastructure. She mentioned that dealerships are selling out of EVs quickly due to rising fuel costs. Nixon, who has owned an electric vehicle since 2017, emphasized the minimal maintenance required and the financial benefits, estimating savings of about $2,500 annually for EV owners. The event showcased the advancements in EV technology and infrastructure, aiming to encourage more residents to consider electric vehicles as a viable option.
