ELI5: Why can't EVs swap batteries?
One of the big complaints about EVs is the charging time, which makes me wonder why the batteries can't be removed and swapped for a fully charged one? Imagine this: you pull into a gas station-looking building but instead of putting a tube full of gas into your ICE car, you drive your EV up and they pop out the dead battery and insert a fully charged one like you do with the TV remote. Then the "battery station" would charge up the dead batteries and put them into other EVs. Is there a reason this isn't feasible?
