The night of 30 August, 2012, is one John Felder, president of Cayman Automotive will never forget. 
The first Caribbean International Electric Car Show was launched at the Cayman Motor Museum in West Bay in Grand Cayman and it was officially announced that regulations allowing electric cars to be registered in the Cayman Islands had been approved. 
After seven long years, Mr. Felder had finally got his wish. 
Over 200 people attended the opening night, which gave many of them their first opportunity to see how far the electric car industry has come. 
Frank Balderamos Jr. was the master of ceremonies, and after a brief welcome, he introduced Andreas Ugland, owner of the Cayman Motor Museum and sponsor of the electric car show. Mr. Ugland said that it was last year when his wife, Natalie, first suggested holding the show at the museum, and it was wonderful to see everyone's efforts coming to fruition. 
Cabinet Minister Mike Adam, welcomed visiting journalists and electric car manufacturers to the Cayman Islands, and then congratulated Mr. Felder for his perseverance in making the electric car show a reality.
