Running Electric is pleased to announce the winner of our 2024 contest, held last fall in partnership with the Académie du Guide de l'auto.
The winner is Martin Jacques, of La Malbaie.
Mr. Jacques receives the 100% electric package, valued at $31,300, which includes a $24,000 credit towards the purchase or lease of a 100% electric car, a one-year insurance policy, a smart home charging station, with installation, plus 4 winter tires.
Mr. Jacques used his credit for the purchase or lease of an electric car to purchase a Chevrolet Equinox.
"On my first experience with my brand-new Chevrolet Equinox EV, I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality, the quiet ride and the very smooth suspension, all of which make for a very pleasant and inexpensive way to get around.
The Equinox EV's long range is amazing. I drove from Saint-Hyacinthe to La Malbaie, braving mountainous terrain and rain and snow to arrive home safely and with almost 20% range remaining.
I love absolutely everything about my new vehicle, which I'm becoming more and more familiar with every day."
