Never understood why AFC spend any money on PR.... They have gone from pillar to post changing it several times, and there has not been hardly any really, all the news come from 007 Aussy Bond anyway
Agreed too. I think Haggis needs to write one of his special emails and get the company to look into why PR is hiding information that can be used as great exposure. No matter who your target market are, everyone wants to have the ‘I keep hearing their name’ in peoples minds.
FCI ..I totally agree this news blackout is wearing very thin, you probably have to go back to the 16th of april since any meaningful news, that is EIGHT weeks, i am not including the cme event as news because nothing that was not already in the public domain was revealed..as far as i can recall ian t was recruited under the heading communications....we are being treated like mushrooms at the moment...rant over...still holding!!
I still don't think that it is right that articles are being written with clear references to AFC's ongoing involvement from the organisers whilst AFC remains silent. There hasn't even been an official confirmation of the ongoing involvement.
The company does, afterall, have a head of communications and a fancy PR company so it shouldn't be beyond their ability to write a press release explaining how AFC is preparing for the event and what the contingency plans are. It is not as if they are swamped with other exciting news releases that have distracted them!
It’s not for over two months, if restrictions aren’t lifted 21st June, isn’t it reviewed again 5 weeks later? Good point though, must be very frustrating for organisers
Maybe AFC are awaiting a deal within the UK charging infrastructure before they could showcase this at the show?
Maybe confidence of it taking place is waning as it seems certain that restrictions won't be lifter as planned
I am not sure why AFC have not been talking more about this year's show, especially as they seem to be in a very quiet news phase. However, it looks like it is all set after the previous delays due to the restrictions and lit all sounds very positive for AFC.
Sitting on the electric fence? Then come and try out the latest EVs at The British Motor Show
Chance to test drive new EVs before you buy at The British Motor Show
AFC Energy Alternative drivE experience will be part of the Select Car Leasing Electric Motor Show, a key part of the event
Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, Renault, Nissan and Mazda all confirmed as test drive models
Vehicles will be charged using innovative AFC Energy fuel cell technology
Show takes place August 19-22, 2021, at Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre, Hants.
Tickets cost just £18.50, or £37 for a family, at thebritishmotorshow.live
Buyers in the market for a new electric car or who are considering one as their next purchase will be able to charge around in the latest and greatest EVs at The British Motor Show 2021, which will feature live test drive opportunities of the latest plug-in models.
The dynamic test drive opportunities are part of the The British Motor Show sponsored by Cinch where many more electric and plug-in hybrid models will be on display in the Select Electric Motor Show
At present, cars confirmed for the test track include Tesla’s Model 3 along with a selection of new EVs from Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Renault and Mazda, with more examples to be added.
Furthermore, the cars will be charged in a zero-emission way, too. AFC Energy will be providing an off-grid, rapid EV charger using its HydroX-Cell H-Power EV Recharge system -the first in commercialised off-grid hydrogen fuelled EV recharging that offers a solution to infrastructure where conventional charging is unavailable.
Andy Entwistle, CEO of the British Motor Show, said: “We know from our own research that there are currently thousands of car buyers planning to go electric for their next purchase and that there are even more who are considering it but are still sitting on the fence.
“The Select Electric Motor Show is there to educate these customers and help them to decide whether an EV is right for them as we head towards 2030, while the dynamic test drive element will further help them decide, while at the same time giving yet another truly unique spin to The British Motor Show, which is the most interactive, action-packed and family-friendly car event in the calendar. With AFC Energy as a partner, we’re also demonstrating the very latest in emissions-free infrastructure technology.”
The organisers are expecting over 50,000 visitors through the doors of Farnborough International between 19 – 22 August 2021.
