My colleague has a NIO car like this, he really likes it and uses the battery swap weekly. To my knowledge they have patented the tech.

If I bought an electric car, I would definitely consider NIO, as this option is great for long trips. In EU they have a couple of swap stations in Germany, but it’s still a long way to go in other countries.
