The V212 Reveal
Saturday, November 14, 2026 — the night V212 returns to the world.
—
A historic night
We’ll mark 30 years since the first GM EV1 customer drive-away with a museum-style exhibit featuring multiple vehicles from the early days of modern electric cars. The exhibit will also celebrate the Chevrolet S-10 EV and its place in the history of electric pickups.
Nearly every EV1 was recalled and crushed. V212 — the only legally privately owned GM EV1 — survived, and after a year-long restoration supported by General Motors itself, it will be seen in public for the first time in decades. A car that was meant to be erased from history comes back, 30 years to the month after the EV1 first reached customers.
The unveiling of V212
The centerpiece of the evening is the unveiling of V212, the restored green GM EV1 VIN 212. You’ll have time to explore the displays, take photos and videos, and chat with the team about how V212 was preserved and brought back.
