Drivers wondering about the leap to electric vehicles (EVs) are being encouraged to attend an event in Cork this weekend to test drive and speak to existing owners to gauge their experience.

Tramore Valley Park will host the information day from 1pm on Saturday that will see EV drivers bring their own cars along, as well as dealer Keary's, to allow would-be owners to find out as much as they can before buying one themselves.
