CHARGING & INFRASTRUCTURE
And with success being a key word when talking about NIO , the company has already delivered over 1,500 Power Swap Stations globally and completed more than 22 million battery changes since inception .
But , before getting into the details of NIO ’ s success , it ’ s important to readdress the challenges that it set out to overcome . The company ’ s efforts to develop the Power Swap solutions – accompanying some very hi-tech , electrified automobiles — are all in favour of changing the EV narrative from one fuelled by range anxiety to allowing drivers more freedom .
“ From a user perspective , it really does provide a real sense of freedom , deep reassurance – and takes away a lot of the anxiety that sometimes is associated with EV ownership – when you know that , actually , recharging your car is as quick and as convenient as refuelling your petrol or diesel car ,” says Galvin .
“ WE ’ RE GOING TO TAKE THIS BATTERY SWAP TECHNOLOGY TO MORE MARKETS UNDER THE NIO BRAND ”
