Rather than taking a detour around EVs, Tucker Powersports is heading straight into the industry's most extensive effort to expose dealers to electric mobility products from its ePower portfolio. The “Tucker ePower Experience” takes to the road this month and will make stops in more than 100 cities around the country, offering test rides and product information on five of the program's brands. Stops will be at powersports dealerships and staffed by Tucker reps along with brand ambassadors and representatives from some of the participating companies.
“The Tucker ePower Experience is the easiest way for powersports dealers to understand the opportunity that exists with electric mobility products,” explains Jamie Kempinski, Tucker’s Director of Business Development. “Experiencing the products will help each dealer determine what products may be a great match for their own business plan.”
Tucker will execute the tour with four event rigs, each one stocked with a full complement of ePower vehicles and point-of-sale information. Fantic and Fuell ebikes, Evolve skateboards, Dualtron scooters and UBCO electric adventure vehicle (EAV) will all be available to ride, Safety equipment and riding gear will also be provided. Host dealers will be supported with digital assets to help them promote the tour stop at their location.
Each of the rigs will function in a designated region. The Southwest, Northwest and Southeast legs kick off this week in Las Vegas, Portland and Jacksonville, Florida. The Northeast route starts next week in Windham NH. The ever-expanding schedule of tour stops is available on the ePower page of the Tucker website. Dealers interested in hosting the Tucker ePower Experience should contact their Tucker representative.
