Go from major intersections to remote stations. How many fully charged batteries do you need to have stored? 100? 1000?
Then figure what equipment is required to hoist a 1,000 pound battery into a car or truck or SUV. And how long does it actually take to remove and reinstall a 1,000 pound battery? And compare that to Porsche that has already shown you can charge a battery to 80% in 15 minutes. It’s just not practical.
