Here is the e-mail response I got to that very question:
"We are showing the vehicles to people and letting them ask questions directly to the owners instead of a car salesman etc. This way they can get real answers to any questions they have. We will also have a few charger companies there like ECOtality with the BLINK and Chanrge Point with their unit. That way everyone can learn how simple it is to plugin and cahrge Off Peak to help the utiltiy use their excess and it's 4 times less tahn gas or diesel.
Mainly question and answers for the public. Any tricks you have learned like programming the car for 80% charge to make the battery last even longer. Checking teh charge with you smart phone, programming the air cond for when you leave in the AM etc

I achieve about 4.6m/kWh on my commute, which is about half at 66mph, and half at a range of city stop and go to 52mph.
