Mission Statement:
To investigate and promote clean transportation technologies with a focus on Electric Energy for Propulsion.
We are enthusiasts, engineers and environmentalists.
The Electric Vehicle Society of Canada (EVSC or EVS for short) provides a forum for members to
discuss and promote personal experiences in building or converting a variety of vehicles
to Electric Propulsion. Our members examine cars, electric bicycles, scooters, boats,
possibly aircraft, and other modes of electric transportation.
EVS members have participated in various events from the annual world
Electric Vehicle Symposium (EVS),
the Tour de Sol, the Toronto Auto Dealer Association (TADA)
Auto Show, and the
Molson Indy (Now Called "GrandPrix Toronto"). We Have Also Exibited at the
Green Living Show.
Encouraging Electric Vehicle Conversions in High Schools is an important activity that is ongoing,
and is supported by our Conversion Manual.
Why Electric Vehicles?
Electric vehicles have a number of distinct advantages over more traditional, internal combustion engine vehicles. Here are a few reasons to consider an electric vehicle:
- Zero Emissions: Clean Running.
- Low cost operation: 1 - 3 Cents Per Mile Energy Costs.
- Simple Design: 1 Moving Part in the Motor.
- Greater Efficiency: No Idling, No Warming Up.
- Make your own Fuel: Solar/Wind, etc.
