OUR OZ-DIY ELECTRIC VEHICLE PROMISE
When you leave, you will have the confidence, the know-how, the support and the EV grin. Everyone who leaves this class tells us it was a great course and never knew how easy it is. They particularly loved driving Graeme's EV's in the workshop driveway after the class to try out the 'REGEN' braking. Once you drive one of these cars you will never look back.
Note: Please bring a chair to sit on that's comfortable and wear enclosed shoes.
