Here’s a video of their battery switching process. Looks great to me.

Jon: Whether his particular plan works is less the point. The idea is to have an all encompassing plan that not only includes the car but the infrastructure to keep it going. I don’t see GM or anyone else thinking on this scale.

I think this guy should take over a parted out GM and use the relevant pieces to do his plan here. Wishful thinking.

I really hope he gets the success this deserves – it makes a huge amount of sense.

From a marketing perspective, the whole operation and brand needs to be seen as something to be part of, and he certainly seems to be starting that now.

Thanks for posting Richard!
