Powering Arizona’s EV Future Through Community

Join a Professional, Passionate Community of EV Enthusiasts Creating Positive Change Through Education, Advocacy, and Engaging Events

Every great movement starts with people who care. At DRIVE Electric Arizona, we're bringing together enthusiastic volunteers, committed stakeholders, and forward-thinking funders to create something extraordinary – a professional, welcoming community that's accelerating Arizona's transition to electric vehicles through the power of shared knowledge and collective action.

The path to sustainable transportation can feel complex and overwhelming. Many Arizonans want to embrace electric vehicles but need clear guidance and hands-on experience. Meanwhile, passionate EV advocates seek meaningful ways to share their knowledge and create impact. That's where our professional approach to community building makes all the difference.

DRIVE Electric Arizona transforms individual passion into collective impact through professionally organized events, strategic education initiatives, and collaborative advocacy efforts. Our welcoming volunteer community combines enthusiasm with expertise to create engaging experiences that make EV adoption accessible, understandable, and achievable for all Arizonans.

      “After coming to a Ride and Drive in 2024, I purchased an EV. When the opportunity arose, I took it to the Sedona Ride & Drive to allow others to experience what I had. It was encouraging to see a good turnout in Sedona of people who were in a similar situation to mine a year earlier, wanting to experience an EV and hear from owners first-hand.”

      “Your team’s efforts and actions during the first year of the DEUSA2 project have been exemplary. From developing your executive team and thorough public-facing website, a plan for Drive Electric AZ, and events that are all over AZ that have reached divergent audiences, your work has been a model for others to follow.”
