A new electric vehicle (EV) charging hub has opened at Barrhead Retail Park.
The eight 300kW rapid charge points are compatible with every EV on the market today and can add 100 miles of range in just 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the model of the vehicle and its battery.
The chargers have been installed by Osprey Charging Network and are designed with simple payment for drivers, accepting contactless bank cards, Apple/Google Pay, the Osprey App and RFID card payments.
Payments can also be made through all major third-party payment methods, including fleet cards.

It is hoped the new hub will encourage EV uptake in the area to bolster the UK's national charging infrastructure as well as improve local air quality, reduce noise pollution and support local decarbonisation efforts.
Ian Johnston, CEO of Osprey Charging, said: "The electric transition is well underway and we're here to provide a reliable and rapid public charging service for drivers, from Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands.
"Each of our new locations is carefully designed to maximise space, accessibility and availability of chargers, working to the latest and highest standards.
"This new charging hub at the Barrhead Retail Park is a vital part of the re-charging network that will enable the decarbonisation of transport in the UK."
