Why not CHANGE your flat battery for a charged one at some local location?

I'm sure it could be done. In-and-out in minutes instead of hours. No need to have charging leads all over the place. No need to upgrade all the local power lines.

The South Korean government is changing all telephone booths into battery-exchange units for their growing number of electric bikes.
In Taiwan you can subscribe and just swap out your battery for your electric scooter as you go.

It works for bikes, and I’m sure will catch on globally, but it doesn’t works for cars, as Hugh points out.
