The SEMA Show and the automotive aftermarket industry have long had gasoline running through their veins. With the rise in EVs from OEMs, EV swap kits and supporting products, there has been a noticeably increased interest in these technologies at the SEMA Show.

Kevi Govender always had a passion for cars, especially the VW air-cooled kind.
