But that’s not all! Esteemed experts in the field will take the stage, delivering informative talks on various aspects of the electric transport revolution and sustainable living.

The Thrilling Highlights

This year’s ‘Going Electric’ is set to captivate attendees with its thrilling highlights. The highly popular ‘Bike Zone’ will make a comeback, showcasing the latest electric bikes for you to marvel at and even test ride.
