I would love to see other brands using those NIO stations too
What generation of battery swap will be drive-through like a car wash or a gas station. No matter how advanced and fast they can swap a battery, it’s still wonky to have to back in.
You don’t have to back in, it does it for you, just go along for the ride 🚘
Does nobody try to understand the basic premise of something before they come online to talk shit about an imaginary issue?
What don’t I understand about battery swap backing in? I’ve been following this since the IPO. Do gas stations require you to back in? Do car washes require you to back in? I didn’t say it didn’t work. I said it’s wonky. I’m talking high volumes of cars like a multiple lane gas station, Costco, for example. I’m looking into the future and efficiency. It’s way more efficient to drive-through than it is to back into.
I’ve been following this company for years and I am very positive about their future.
Ok buddy.
What’s the imaginary issue?
Backing in. It’s not a real problem. You made it a problem in your head.
The car align and reverse itself in lol.
Do you live in the 2010s?
Space is an issue. This is not the US
I've seen India and Egypt traffic, space is never an issue.
Just bad drivers that need wider road and space to navigate small area
Drive thru need more space. That means most money for rental and some small but strategy area not able to install battery swap station.. the back in is all automation.
