Switch Vehicles has educated over 2,000+ technicians, teachers, students, and do-it-yourselfers since 2008. People have traveled from England, Vietnam, Malaysia, Canada, and France to attend our EV Workshops. Nationally we have had participants from Maine to Florida to Washington and Arizona, and many states in between.

People come to Switch Vehicles in California because we offer the hands-on, professional training they need to teach The Switch Lab™ EV in their program or for their own personal interest.

We look forward to hosting you at one of our workshops, so you can make the switch!
