The company has previously said that its swapping stations work on similar principles to a fuel station. The EV maker also claims that its swap stations are designed ‘keeping interoperability’ in mind. These facilities are equipped with charged and ready-to-go batteries that can easily be swapped with the near-empty batteries in a few minutes.
