Back in 2012, we rented a Toyota Camry hybrid. It kept up with highway traffic, did not need to be plugged in and got 43 mpg even while sitting in traffic jams.
Every time you stepped on the brake, the battery got recharged through regenerative braking. The four cylinder gas engine didn't start until you went over 40 mph which means that while driving around town you didn't use any gas.

The Battery swapping started in ISRAEL in 2007, by a company named Better Place. The car was $10K cheaper you didn't need to buy the battery. The Battery was swappable, took about 10 minutes to swap, and you didn't have to worry about battery life. The company went BANKRUPT and buyers were stuck with USELESS CARS, which were repossed!

I used to drive an electric forklift at work and I found out quickly that older batteries that show a full charge on the charger only last about an hour. I hope someone is monitoring the health of these batteries because I’d hate to swap out a battery and have it die out after only an hour of driving down the road.

I still remember 20 years ago GM introduced the "skateboard" concept. Where you would only purchase the bottom chassis, including the battery pack and wheels, of the vehicle, and then you can swap out the top portion which included the seat arrangements, the hood, head lights, outer design, everything else. Interesting idea, would've loved to see that concept again.

I am waiting to buy a NIO or two whenever they are available in the USA. Why, I want to be part of that extraordinary user experience, amongst owning an amazing product full of technology and NO range anxiety. While most EVs depreciates, NIO EVs appreciates because of their battery swap model, of which is truly a REAL GAME CHANGER in the electric vehicle industry. GAMEOVER!!!
