Electric vehicles are becoming more popular in Australia as residents aim to reduce, costs as well as fuel emissions and pollution. With the rise of EV motorists on the roads, public access EV charging stations have been popping up all over Australia to accommodate for these motorists.

Tamborine mountain is within easy reach of Brisbane and the Gold Coast and now electric vehicle motorists will be able to drive to and from the region for daytrips or wonderful weekends away without the fear of running out of power.

Thanks to Richard from Tamborine blinds & awnings for the installation of the EV station on thunderbird Park, all EV drivers coming for a visit are able to charge their vehicles for FREE whilst they grab a coffee at our Terrace Kiosk or explore the vast amenities and activities at Thunderbird Park should they choose to.
