Join us to drive the change!
MN Electric Vehicle Owners (MNEVO) provides a forum for Minnesota plug-in vehicle (BEV and PHEV) owners to connect, share their experiences and learn more about EV related topics. We meet every second month in various locations. Our membership and meetings are free and open to anyone who owns or is interested in shifting to drive electric. MN EV Owners is a chapter of the National Electric Vehicle Association.

Meet
MNEVOwners provides a forum to meet with EV owners, share your experiences, ask questions and just enjoy connecting with others. People shift to driving electric for many reasons, and it is good to learn from different viewpoints. Meetings are also a great place to see new vehicle makes and models.

Learn
New technologies, new vehicles and new ways to power your drive. There are so many new things constantly happening in this industry and many of them affect the ways we choose, charge and use our vehicles. We will have presentations and new discussion topics at each meeting.

Educate
As EV owners, we can make a difference by simply sharing our experiences with the general public and key stake-holders. Please see the calendar below for upcoming events and sign up for the ones that fit your schedule. You don't have to be an expert on all things EV, just share why and how you drive electric.
Our Next Meeting on Thursday 4/28 6:30-8:30PM:
Our April meeting, 4/28, 6:30-8:30PM
Would you like to make a difference? Join our meeting April 28th.
EV awareness among the general public is growing fast, but often this is still quite intangible for people. The good news is that we can change that. We are seeing a lot of interest in a variety of EV events. As EV owners, we have an opportunity to make a difference and advance EV adoption simply by showing up at events and sharing our experiences with people. Over the years, we have seen the power that every EV owner has when talking with people who are curious about EVs. This year we will focus on enabling more members to get involved. At our next meeting on April 28, we will talk about how to coordinate an EV display, participate in an EV panel, and volunteer with your car at EV events. Please join us to get some tips on how to make this easy and fun for everyone. Our meeting is hosted by Dakota County at their beautiful Schaar’s Bluff Gathering Center. If you haven’t visited this place before, now is a really good opportunity.
