EV battery swapping is a process that involves replacing a depleted battery pack with a fully charged unit at a dedicated swapping station, enabling drivers to get back on the road in less than the time it takes to top-up a tank of petrol. The drained batteries are then recharged, typically during off-peak energy times.
Building on the success of this technology in China, battery swap pioneer Nio has officially announced a strategic cooperation agreement with compatriot carmakers Chery and JAC. This collaboration builds upon Nio’s previous partnerships with Geely, Changan, Wenergy, and ATHG.
