Event Report
Morning Tea with and EV is an effective way to engage with prospective EV buyers. After the market, we invited interested parties to join us at the Totara Café for morning Tea and chat about EVs. This is a comfortable atmosphere where curious buyers can ask questions and test drive. The Totara Café also provides Type 2 chargers, so it is easily demonstrated how easy it is to charge.
