Sustainability is truly part of the Vodafone Rally de Portugal — and this year, visitors to Exponor have the chance to engage with it hands-on through the new EcoDriver activation.
Created especially for this edition of the rally, the initiative is led by three national entities at the forefront of automotive waste management in Portugal — Valorpneu, Valorcar, and Sogilub — and aims to raise awareness of recycling and sustainable mobility.
How does it work?
- Visitors are invited to answer 3 questions on sustainability and recycling.
- Only with all three answers correct can they advance to the final challenge: remotely driving a model car through a specially designed course.
- Complete the task and earn a sustainable-themed prize!
This interactive space is open to the public during Exponor’s opening hours:
- Friday and Saturday: 10:00 AM to 12:00 AM
- Sunday: 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM
