Project
To preserve the environment and realize self sustainable society through promotion of electric vehicles, Chairman Soichiro Fukutake of the Association for the Promotion of Electric Vehicles (APEV) forms the ‘Pikes Peak EV Challenge Committee’ and moves forward with the fourth year challenge as “TEAM APEV with MONSTER SPORT” at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in Colorado U.S.A. from June 22nd through 28th of 2015.
The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb first starting in 1916 is now nearing its 100th anniversary. Here in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado USA, our project started from the 2012 initial appearance and we have continued to appeal the importance of preserving earth’s environment for the future and promote the popularization of electric vehicles.
The second phase beginning this year is based on accomplishments from the first phase in 2012 – 2014. The goal now is to achieve the first overall victory with an electric vehicle at the 2016 PPIHC 100th anniversary race. We begin our new phase this year by pitching in a new electric vehicle fully explored of its potentiality.
We wish for your further support and cooperation to the project as we challenge the race and continue our activities related to the promotion of environment preservation and proliferation of electric vehicles.
