What is the WAVE?
Come and join the WAVE 2011 - the World Advanced Vehicle Expedition! This exciting event will travel from Paris to Prague this September with a special mission to promote electric mobility running on renewable energy.
Let's make a difference, together! We will visit governments, business leaders, schools and places of interest. Get an electric car, form a team and join us! Let's have fun! Or be our host and support us! The WAVE will grow year by year. More and more people will wave and show that new technical solutions are ready, reliable and fun!
Let's move the world!
“When climate change and energy crisis is on everyone’s mind, it’s time to come up with solutions!”
Louis Palmer,
WAVE initiator and tour director
