Comments on the e4 TESTIVAL
“Mobility is freedom, and electric mobility expands that freedom. We no longer drive to a gas station to fill up; instead, we charge wherever we are, and we’re excited about driving dynamics, zero-emission powertrains, and acceleration figures. No one needs arguments about how we get from A to B—but everyone needs passion for it!”
“The e4 TESTIVAL is a celebration for all curious, adventurous, and visionary mobility enthusiasts. I’ve been a regular attendee for years and am looking forward to the latest adventures in electric mobility!”
“Electric mobility in action and interaction—that’s what the e4 TESTIVAL brings together perfectly. Electric vehicles are something you have to experience and drive. The Hockenheimring is the ideal venue for this, and this event symbolizes the dawn of a new era of mobility—and for the Hockenheimring itself. It was an extraordinary season finale for e-CROSS GERMANY as part of the e4 TESTIVAL. Our team and I are already looking forward to next year. Exciting and innovative times lie ahead!”
“A celebration of electric mobility! Electric longboards, bicycles, cargo tricycles, cars, and more. Everything was there, and you could test drive everything—it was great!”
“Congratulations!! By focusing on e-mobility and related topics—such as mobility-as-a-service and infrastructure for connected energy generation and distribution—the organizers of e4testival have tapped into a topic that is currently of great importance to our society. I’m already looking forward to next year!”
“A great opportunity to experience the whole range of electromobility. From e-cars and e-bikes to the right charging solution.”
“People need information and inspiration in order to embrace the transport revolution. The e4 Testival at the Hockenheimring offered both in a unique combination: an exchange with experts on all aspects of electromobility – and on top of that, the opportunity to get to know the new technology during test drives.”
“The e4 Testival gave us the opportunity to present ourselves to a broad audience interested in technology and to share our enthusiasm for innovative electromobility, including in student racing. We are happy to have been part of it. Here's to a successful round at the Hockenheimring in 2019!”
“The e4 TESTIVAL was an all-round successful event where interested parties, new and experienced users and providers of electromobility could meet and exchange ideas in the best possible way. There were great opportunities to drive an electric car yourself, ask current questions at the stands or get lots of insights from interesting presentations – we at SAP are already looking forward to next year's e4 TESTIVAL.”
“It was a successful debut for the first e-mobility trade show focused on active transportation at the Hockenheimring. At our booth, Württembergische Versicherung was able to present suitable insurance solutions for pedelecs, e-bikes, and electric cars. Through many proactive discussions with manufacturers and visitors, we were able to answer questions about insurance coverage for e-mobility. We look forward to being there again at the next event.”
“An all-round successful event that combines theory with practical experience. I look forward to attending again next year – hopefully with exciting success stories from this year's start-ups!”
“Thank you very much for the invitation to present the fuel cell for cargo bikes at the e4 TESTIVAL. JU-KNOW has put together an all-round successful event with the forum, which complemented the driving part well with its wide variety of electric vehicles. The presentations were a very pleasant mix of exciting entertainment and technical expertise. I was able to make interesting contacts with other speakers for our project.”
