NAFA's 2025 Institute & Expo to Feature Comprehensive Electric Vehicle Experience

The National Association of Fleet Administrators (NAFA) is set to revolutionize fleet professionals' understanding of electric vehicle technology through immersive experiences at its upcoming 2025 Institute & Expo (I&E). The event will feature two groundbreaking opportunities for fleet managers to directly engage with cutting-edge electric and alternative fuel vehicles.

The Indoor EV Test Track, scheduled for April 29-30, will allow attendees to experience the latest electric vehicles as passengers. Participating manufacturers include Ford, Lucid, Nissan, PoleStar, Rivian, Volkswagen, and Volvo. This indoor track experience provides fleet professionals a unique opportunity to assess the performance and technological capabilities of emerging electric vehicle models.

Complementing the indoor track, the Outdoor Ride & Drive Experience on April 30 will enable fleet managers to personally test drive vehicles from leading manufacturers. The expanded lineup includes additional brands such as Mercedes Benz, Ram Professional, Toyota, and UPower, giving participants comprehensive insights into the evolving electric and alternative fuel vehicle landscape.

These interactive experiences are critical for fleet management professionals navigating the complex transition to electric and alternative fuel vehicles. By providing direct exposure to emerging technologies, NAFA is helping industry leaders make informed decisions about vehicle acquisitions, understand performance characteristics, and assess potential fleet integration strategies.

The events are part of a broader I&E conference featuring over 40 educational sessions and networking opportunities. With sponsors representing diverse sectors of transportation and fleet management, the conference underscores the industry's commitment to technological innovation and sustainable mobility solutions.

For fleet managers, these experiences represent more than just test drives. They offer a strategic opportunity to evaluate technological advancements, compare vehicle performance, and understand the practical implications of electrification for organizational transportation needs. The hands-on approach allows professionals to move beyond theoretical discussions and gain tangible insights into the future of fleet management.

As organizations increasingly prioritize sustainability and cost-efficiency, understanding electric and alternative fuel vehicle technologies becomes paramount. NAFA's comprehensive approach at the 2025 Institute & Expo provides a critical platform for professionals to stay ahead of emerging transportation trends and make strategic, informed decisions.
