A team of inner-city students from Kansas City, Mo., will explore the beauty and innovation of California's coastline during a dynamic tour from the redwood forests near Eureka to the white-sand beach of Carmel-by-the-Sea. MINDDRIVE will drive an all-electric Karmann Ghia from Eureka, Calif., heading south on Highway 1 en route to Carmel in June, 2014. Carmel-by-the-Sea is designated as the official site for the finale celebration on Wednesday, June 4.

From 4-6 p.m. at the Sunset Center parking lot at Eighth and San Carlos streets, there will be a free showcase of MINDDRIVE's Karmann Ghia, along with an eclectic collection of innovative vehicles from the past and present including: Tesla's original electric vehicle prototype the T Zero along with the Tesla S and Tesla Roadster, all-electric Zero Motorcycles, Chevy Volt, THINK EV, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Porsche, Studebaker, Riley and Panhard among others. Using the theme "Technology + Art = Innovation," the display of cars will reveal how innovation drives the future.
