After seeing the movie "Who killed the Electric Car" (2006), we all thought that that was it... It was never gonna happen, we'd be driving cars on fossil fuels till forever.

But the Electric Car is back, stronger as ever! In the second documentary of director Chris Paine, he takes a peek behind the closed doors of i.a. Nissan and GM en shows the story of the global resurgence of electric cars.

After the movie one of the founders of Epyon, Wouter Robers, will give his view of the developments in the world of electric vehicles and talkes about where the current oppertunities lay in the Netherlands. You can also come and see the 100% electric Nissan Leaf at the square in front of the faculty of Industrial Design, "Car of the Year" in 2011!
