Discussing the Realities of Buying Electric Vehicles


Adult Enrichment / Sustainability -
2024 Fall Adult Catalog

Learn practical information about purchasing electric vehicles from people who have gone through the process and what to expect from ownership. We'll review what questions are important to consider and what options are available now and in the future. We'll keep the information light and digestible, but allow for time to dig into additional questions and interests as they come up. Join us to find out what the EV smiles are all about! Sponsored by EarthFest and Destination Medical Center.

Jonny Yucuis

Adult Enrichment Instructor

Jonny Yucuis has been an electric vehicle owner in Rochester since 2018. Inspired by the birth of his daughter and reports of our unsustainable path of global warming, Jonny decided to make the switch from a gas car to a fully electric car. Now after driving electric through Minnesota’s 100+ degree summers and -30 degree winters, and realizing the environmental, economic and performance benefits, he’s convinced that now is the right time for everyone to make the switch to electric. In 2019, he founded Rochester Electric Vehicles, an organization dedicated to helping Rochester neighbors make the switch to electric.
