Recharging an electric vehicle by a battery swap in Barcelona, Spain 1943

1. Modern times could be like a Formula 1 pit stop along the freeway!!
   No more cables and charging stations needed.

2. Gen 3 Formula E pitstop preview

3. I’ve seen a us patent a while ago (10-15 yrs) where it would swap the battery from the bottom automatically. As batteries get better and chargers more prolific, I guess this battery swapping won’t be needed as much.

4. Quick swap ? You need like 5 people, moveable crane and demontage half of the car.

5. Like when the world was at war and generalissmo Franco was slaughtering (outside of Cambodia. Spain has most massed graves)hey !but a taxi is environmentally friendly

6. That’s how you tackle unemployment (and environmental issues as a side effect)

7. Any idea how much it can drive before it has to be recharged?

8. That’s like a forklift battery change when the new shift comes in!

9. I like how we had the technology not to fuck up the climate but some people preferred to get incredible rich. Which absolutely makes sense since they never faced any consequences and will die in luxury before shit really hits the fan.

10. And it took just 36 seconds.

11. Id realy like to have that mini crane.

12. Imagine where we’d be if technology went electric from that year forward, instead the crude oil industry squashed it before it could become anything.

13. It’s pronounced “Barcelona”.
