CAA-Quebec: Your one-stop shop for exploring electric vehicles at MEVS

Published on May 2, 2025

Electric vehicles (EVs) may be celebrating their 15th anniversary on our roads, but the decision to buy one isn’t something to be taken lightly. That’s why CAA-Quebec will be there for you more than ever to help you explore and test drive EVs at the Montréal Electric Vehicle Show (MEVS), from May 2 to 4.

CAA-Quebec has been a partner of MEVS since the show’s inception, and in 2017 it will welcome visitors at its booth in the indoor exhibition area of IGA Stadium. Mobility Advisory Services specialists will be on hand to answer any questions you may have about purchasing and driving an EV—no pressure. They will also present the range of services available to CAA-Quebec members who will soon be transitioning to electrified driving or who have done so already.

“As the transition to EVs accelerates in a context of economic uncertainty, finding neutral recommendations becomes especially important.

Whether it’s buying the right vehicle, selecting a reliable charging station, or getting maintenance recommendations, CAA-Quebec will be there to guide the public at the show.”

Jesse Caron, automotive expert

Right next to the CAA-Quebec booth will be the registration area for EV road tests, always a popular activity at MEVS. Thanks to the collaboration of 12 automakers and Quebec charging station supplier PowerQ, no fewer than 26 electric vehicles and 3 plug-in hybrids will be available to MEVS visitors this year.
