John Meyer,

A very similar educational service, showing the public the features of EVs, has just been opened in Portland, Oregon. The Portland facility has a range of sponsors including Honda, BMW and the  Oregon Auto Dealers Association. People interested in EV technology can test one out for a couple of days. Folks can test the Chevy Bolt, Ford C-Max Energi and Nissan Leaf, so far.
