Michelin UK’s ‘Eclectic Electric’ show presents the very best in global EV scene

MANILA: Michelin and renowned automotive destination Caffeine & Machine will bring back the “Eclectic Electric” all-electric vehicle show on September 10 to 11 in Warwickshire, England.

Now in its second year, Eclectic Electric will gather the very best of the EV segment. Everrati will be showcasing the Superformance GT40 MKII, a continuation model of the timeless classic made in collaboration with Superformance LLC. The Arc Vector, which is dubbed as “the world's most advanced motorcycle,” will also be on display. Attendees will also have a chance to see the first ever electric hyper-SUV, the Lotus Eletre.

Mainstream car brands will also be participating in the event with their latest EV models.

“Electric vehicles look and feel completely different to their fossil-fuelled counterparts, provoking strong reactions and emotions in many drivers. Eclectic Electric was created to celebrate the more exotic electrified innovations alongside accessible options for a wider audience,” Michelin Managing Director for UK and Ireland John Howe stated. “The popularity of EVs is growing at a staggering rate and we hope that Eclectic Electric accelerates the appeal even more by giving enthusiasts access to some of the finest electrified machinery available. Alongside this, we will have our 53 Motorsport tyre, our ultra-high performance racing tyre that contains an unprecedented 53% sustainable materials, on display for the public to see and learn more about. With a variety of brands attending, and some show-stopping displays, both new and long-standing fans of electric mobility will like what they see at Eclectic Electric.”

Michelin stays true to its commitment to sustainability by being involved in various sustainability programs. The tire company is the founding partner of the FIA Formula E, resulting in the development of the Michelin Pilot Sport EV racing tires. These award-winning tires make the technology created to meet high-performance circuit racing requirements available for road use on EVs.

As the first official brand partner of Caffeine & Machine, Michelin will be present at Eclectic Electric to present its latest products and sustainability efforts.
