EVs Invited to Join First-Ever Nationwide Relay with Gumball 3000
Rev up your battery with Gumball 3000! We’re about to launch an electrifying twist on the legendary Gumball 3000 rally—and we want you to be right at the heart of it. For years, the Gumball 3000 has symbolized speed, style, and spectacle. However, this year brings something new. For the first time ever, electric vehicles will have the chance to join the excitement, proving that clean energy can deliver just as much thrill as horsepower.
Moreover, this is not just about showing up—it’s about making history. By rolling into iconic cities across the country, EVs will demonstrate that innovation and sustainability belong on the same stage as supercars and luxury rides. At every stop, your presence will showcase what’s possible when technology and responsibility come together. In fact, the EV Relay is designed to highlight how everyday drivers can be leaders in a global shift toward clean transportation.
Most importantly, this event is about connection. Since each leg of the relay brings together communities, car lovers, and eco-advocates, the movement gains strength with every mile. Furthermore, the energy is contagious—when one EV pulls up alongside a row of roaring engines, it sparks curiosity, conversation, and change. Therefore, joining the rally means more than being part of a show; it means being part of a nationwide movement that places electric vehicles at the center of attention, helping drive the future of green living.
What’s happening with Gumball3000?
We’re organizing the first-ever EV Relay across the United States, and it’s set to make history. Since it runs alongside the epic Gumball 3000 supercar route, the event blends the thrill of world-class automotive culture with the innovation of clean energy. Moreover, this isn’t just a side attraction—it’s a full integration of electric vehicles into one of the most iconic rallies in the world.
At every stop, our goal is to shine a spotlight on electric mobility. Therefore, EVs will not only be displayed as cutting-edge machines but will also join the action by driving specific segments of the rally itself. Furthermore, these moments create powerful opportunities to show that electric cars can perform with both confidence and style while offering a sustainable alternative to traditional supercars.
Most importantly, the EV Relay is about visibility. Because it leverages the global reach of the Gumball 3000, it ensures that electric vehicles take center stage on a platform that’s usually dominated by fossil-fueled speed. As a result, the rally amplifies the message that EVs aren’t just the future—they are ready to take the spotlight today.

The EV Relay is more than a side event. Instead, it represents a turning point where electric cars finally share the stage with some of the most recognized supercars in the world. Moreover, it sends a powerful message: sustainability and performance are no longer at odds—they belong together.
