Santa’s Electric Sleigh Heads to Lapland!
In a remarkable initiative, the DailyDriven.ro team has embarked on a unique adventure: a journey with a Tesla Model 3 to Lapland, the land of Santa Claus. Under the name “Santa’s Electric Sleigh,” the project combines testing electric mobility with a noble cause: delivering letters and gifts to the children of the Ana and Children Association.
Where did the project idea come from?
The idea was born out of a desire to prove that an electric car can handle extreme conditions: long-distance travel, freezing temperatures, and a total journey of 8,000 km to the Arctic Circle and back.
Moreover, the team aims to bring the magic of Christmas to underprivileged children and fulfill a growing wish on many kids’ Christmas lists: a greener planet.
Why “Santa’s Electric Sleigh”?
This year, Santa has a modern helper! The Tesla Model 3 becomes the "electric sleigh" that will carry gifts, letters, and hope from children in Romania to Rovaniemi, Santa’s official residence. On the way back, the team will distribute gifts to children from an orphanage in Bucharest, spreading the holiday spirit even further.
Testing electric mobility in extreme conditions
The project is an opportunity to assess how sustainable electric cars truly are today. With the support of partners Autonom, Eldrive Romania, and GLS Romania, the “electric sleigh” will traverse thousands of kilometers in severe winter conditions, all while promoting the importance of reducing CO₂ emissions.
