First of its kind Innovation and Experience Centre
SP & Borneo Motors: Turning Tengah into the Future of Driving
Picture this: a slick, shiny world where cars run on zero emissions and people actually enjoy the journey — no more waiting in line for a fuel pump, just a quick tap and go!
The Innovation & Experience Centre
- Education + Awareness: Imagine a hub where locals learn about cutting‑edge mobility, from electric powertrains to smart charging.
- Glide‑Safe Driving: The centre also hosts workshops on safer driving habits, proving that a smooth ride can save money and, hey, keep you and others safe.
- Money‑Saving Moves: Energy‑efficient tech, explained in plain English, means you’ll spend less on fuel and more on the fun stuff.
Charging 2030 Goal
SP’s plan is ambitious but practical: by 2030, up to 10% of all parking spaces in the Tengah Park, Garden, and Plantation districts will feature EV charging points.
Why 10%? Because that’s a smart fraction that spreads coverage without overwhelming the grid — a sweet spot for the national 60,000 EV charging points initiative.
What Happens Next?
As the partnership expands, residents of Tengah will soon roll from their car to the nearest charging point in seconds. The message is clear: keep it green, keep it local, and keep it hustle‑free.
Why You Should Care
- Charger everywhere you park and a centre that actually explains why you should care about electrified vehicles.
- Smarter driving means fewer headaches and a fresher planet.
- And hey — the quicker you charge, the more time you have for that extra coffee on the way home.
Stay tuned for the next chapter: SP & Borneo Motors’ brand‑new EV sharing programme coming soon to Tengah. The future’s looking bright — just a little bit louder, and a lot less hummable.
