Ergon Brings Electric Car to Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers

One of a small fleet of electric vehicles being trialled by Ergon Energy will be taking part in the Grand Central Floral Parade and will be on display at the entry to the Ergon Energy Flower, Food & Wine Festival in Upper Queens Park on the 16th, 17th and 18th of September.

Back from a test drive, Member for Toowoomba North, Kerry Shine discussing the Mitsubishi with Ergon Energy Area Operations Manager, Tim O'Neill.
No, petrol does NOT go in here.... the power plug does!

The vehicle is a Mitsubishi i-MiEV, and this may well be the first time an electric vehicle has traversed many of Toowoomba’s Streets.
