Why spend hours charging your battery, when you can swap it out in 3 minutes or less for a fully charged one? That is less time than it takes to fill up a tank full of gas. This is all over China right now and will eventually make its way to the western nations.
Top Chinese EV maker Nio has released its second-generation battery-swap station, which can automatically change an electric vehicle's battery pack.
The service has been welcomed by customers.
Nio has completed more than 800 battery-swap stations in China as of February 2022 and it plans to build a total of 1300 by the end of 2022. Many other EV and battery makers in China have begun building battery-swap stations.
Each battery swap station can change out over 300 batteries per day and it takes 3 minutes or less.
