, situated halfway between Warwick and the Gold Coast on a busy transit route. She is excited about the rEVolution. In our phone interview, she could barely contain her enthusiasm for the change that is overtaking Australian roads. When she started to see electric cars drive through, then appear in her community, she saw a way to both encourage tourism and increase her business.
By establishing the only high-speed charger within an hour’s drive in every direction, Maureen realised that there was a business opportunity to be grasped and started looking at options. Decision making was expedited by David Nyambuya from EV Charging Australia. His team had been cold canvassing local businesses in Beaudesert looking for possible install sites.Maureen and David with the new high-speed charger. Photo courtesy of Beaudesert Tyre Store.
So far, she has changed the tyres on about 10 electric cars. She has had Hyundai Ioniqs, MG ZS EVs, and lots of Teslas from her local area in her workshop. The sales rep for Continental Tyres recently leased an electric BMW with 5 years of free charging on. He travels the district from his home on Tamborine Mountain and has told Maureen that he will be dropping in for a charge frequently. In fact, he said that Beaudesert Tyre Store will be his only charging spot.
The charger was installed by the team from RegenEV led by Arran Blomfield. When Maureen told Arran she had never been in an EV, he took her for a spin in his work Tesla Model 3 SR. “He put his foot down and I almost landed in the back seat.” Maureen is making the time to chat to the drivers who come for a charge and is amazed at the stories they tell.
