Earlier this month, newly installed NASCAR chief operating officer Steve O’Donnell told reporters they were “exploring some opportunities” to run an all-electric series.
According to NBC Sports, he said that the three manufacturers that participate in NASCAR — Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota — had expressed interest in seeing electric cars in stock car racing.
“We are exploring some opportunities around an exhibition series in that space,” O’Donnell said.
