Sustainable scooter future for Noosa

Scooters have always been a great way to get around Noosa, and now the electric models on offer make that choice even better, with zero emissions from your ride, coupled with great design and performance. Design options range from motorbike styles to the retro moped-style, and you will be able to check out both at the free Noosa Electric Vehicle Expo on Sunday, 21 March.

Event coordinator Vivien Griffin said that she was delighted to have Fonzarelli as one of the exhibitors at the Expo with both the NKD electric motor bike and the Arthur mopeds. “These vehicles are a great fit with the Expo ethos,” she said. “Fonzarelli build state-of-the-art zero emission bikes using innovation, efficiency and intuitive design.”Vivien added that the Fonz dream began in 2010, with a belief in effortless style, high performance and emission-free riding, and the company has since developed distinctive designs and ground-breaking technology powered by passion.Noosa resident Alexander Kohl is an example of one individual’s personal journey towards a smaller transport footprint, and he is loving every minute. “When we came back from our journey around the world in 2017, we decided to further reduce our footprint. One decision was not to buy a car, but instead share cars with friends,” he said.

“Living in Noosa means that there are no car sharing services here. We were lucky and forever grateful to two friends who live in the same road as we do and were happy to share their cars. It was also clear to me that my next purchased vehicle would be electric. And now the time has come.

My Fonzarelli comfortably fits two people, has a top speed of 80km/hr and a range of about 100km. And it is completely silent. Such a joy to ride without pollution. So now my friend is getting ready to get a motorcycle license, so I can share the scooter with her … ”

The Noosa Electric Vehicle Expo will be held in the Noosa Transit Centre car park, Lanyana Way, on Sunday 21 March 10am-2pm. Entry is free and more information can be found at www.noosaevexpo.com.au.
