SVEM 2021: Challenge met for the first Consumer Show in Canada
Montreal may have had its first general public show, the sanitary measures, the numerous works around the stadium and the beautiful temperature of this early fall have not melted the enthusiasm of the population of Greater Montreal for vehicles at electric motor skills.
We would even be of the opinion that this prompted these fans to leave their homes to pay a visit to the SVEM.
Between Friday 1 p.m. and Sunday 5 p.m., exactly 25,228 people, a slight drop on the last edition, descended the steps of the Olympic Stadium. They came to learn, see, touch, try out cars, bikes, scooters, karts and scooters… all powered by Quebec’s own electricity. Considering the special conditions this year, the promoters of the event are extremely satisfied.
During the 23 hours of operation of the SVEM, the 42 vehicles dedicated to road tests have never stopped circulating on the urban circuit designed for them. The same phenomenon also hit the test track of the bicycles, scooters, scooters and other means of electric transport with one or two wheels present at the Show.
The exhibitors were also very happy with the crowd success. Some had to plan for additional staff as of Friday afternoon given the turnout which turned out to be significantly higher than the forecasts they had made. As the other would say, "It's a beautiful problem to deal with ..."
Our next meeting will be in Quebec on October 1st, 2nd and 3rd, for the second edition in our national capital (full details at www.sveq.ca).
As for the 5th edition of the SVEM, it will be held in spring 2022, on April 22nd, 23rd and 24th, still at the Olympic Stadium. Be present at our next meetings!
And we conclude by thanking the exhibitors, their employees, volunteers and above all, all the amateurs who animated with their presence the 204,000 square feet of SVEM 2021.
