Supercharger - Brisbane (Indooroopilly), Qld

The “big white power units” look decidedly red in my photo lol

The units are white, but there's a big red sign in front of them!

Yeah, at least 6 is great. I think I counted 8 yesterday and maybe room for one more. But perhaps that extra space is taken up by the big white power units.

They're being installed in 3s, so if you counted at least 8 then it could be a 9 bay installation.

Makes a lot of sense to put mega-branding on them to be honest! The best advertisement you could have.

It’s alive!

It’s alive!

Can you confirm how many stalls.

 

[moa999]

Confirmed via Plugshare PM as 9 stall. All V3 CCS only.

Is that now the largest SC site in Australia?

Sydney (Macquarie) at 10 V2s retains the record for now and might for a while.

I can't see many of the planned sites being larger.
Holbrook will hopefully be 9, but it's a smallish town and assuming located near the existing NRMA site not a huge amount of room.

Hurray it is live!

The 9th charger is front-drive in (being used by my car in photo); and other 8 are reverse park.

What is the point of nose in Superchargers where you don't have the room to keep a trailer on? They seem to have them in quite a few places now. Cooma springs to mind for example, while the older chargers never really had nose in options.

I think it's for things like bike racks.

7 out of 9 chargers in use!

And that’s with EVs only 0.25% of the light vehicle fleet!

 

[Chuq]

But to be fair, how many of those are people just testing it out because it's new?

I was impressed in part because the new charger isn’t even in my in-car maps/navigation yet.

I only know about it because I found this thread months ago, and started watching its progress leading to completion.

Appearing in anyone else’s car map?

 

[drnic]

Ooh I stand corrected. It is on my map. So yeah, I’ll go with Saturday + novelty as initial reason for high usage.

One of the people interviewed in there shares my concerns about how difficult it is to navigate inside that shopping centre car park and the crazy traffic there at the weekend.
