Tesla demos 90-second battery swap tech, coming to Supercharger stations in 2013

2013-06-21 16:40:46| Extremetech

If you thought that Tesla's network of Superchargers, which can give your electric vehicle 200 miles of range in 30 minutes of charging, was too slow, Elon Musk's company now has an even better solution: Swapping your depleted Tesla Model S battery for a fully charged battery in 90 seconds. That's less time than it takes to refuel your gas- or diesel-powered car. This technology, dubbed Battery Swap, will hopefully come to Model S owners in California in 2013, with the Boston-Washington D.C. corridor sometime after that.
