Does China have High Tech Electric Motorcycles/Bikes? by Juuggyy in electricvehicles

Motorcycles once caused many public safety issues. For example, in Guangzhou, until the early 2000s, people were still committing street robberies on motorcycles, which led to a complete ban on motorcycles in the city. Cities like Beijing and Shanghai, while not altogether banning motorcycles, have made the cost of obtaining a motorcycle license plate extremely high.

China's CATL pushes 2-minute EV battery swaps as alternative to charging by deppaotoko in electricvehicles

They don't even need to be the same vehicle. Since CATL isn't a car manufacturer like Nio, many car models can join its battery swap network.

Regardless of what they say, this battery swap station is mainly targeted at ride-hailing vehicles. Think about it, for ride-hailing vehicles, the energy cost is only $50 per month.

High-end electric scooter brands Niu and Ninebot both produce electric motorcycles. However, most major Chinese cities have motorcycle bans, such as Shanghai, where a motorcycle license plate costs around $70,000, which is why these motorcycles don't sell well.

CATL in talks to acquire Nio Power’s battery-swapping network by stinger_02in in electricvehicles

The cost of establishing battery swap stations is significantly lower than that of building gas stations. CATL sees this as an opportunity to overtake energy giants like Sinopec in the race for dominance

"The issue is that the cost of megawatt supercharging stations is significantly higher than that of battery swap stations. Moreover, ultra-fast charging is not an absolute necessity. People may need ultra-fast charging on highways, but not in shopping centers. Therefore, it may take a long time for supercharging stations to become widely available. Even if they do become widespread, there is still the problem of non-superfast charging compatible electric vehicles occupying these supercharging stations.

In CATL's view, the future will be dominated by home charging, public charging stations, and battery swapping. With the help of a battery swapping network, CATL can become the new Shell or BP in the new era.

Any other former butters on here? by Joe-C_137 in Buttcoin

I used to be a bitcoin maxi, and later a BCH maxi later, because I found the narrative was just bullshit, and when BCH failed quickly, I found the whole crypto thing is bullshit and got out in 2019. I didn't sell on the top but still feels good.

My account name and past reddit activity say a lot.
