cb32000

I'm talking specifically what cb32000 proposed, which is to keep the current battery and swap only the metal-air one. This would require a separate space and connectors for the metal-air battery.
If it's talking about a hybrid battery in the same enclosure then the logistics of that is not significantly different from what we are already discussing (since it would require swapping the entire pack).
The way I'm reading the quote is that this will happen within the next couple of months (part of Elon's 5 part trilogy). Not something that is more far off.
I would be surprised by anything available in the next few months to allow recharging at the rate of faster than filling a fuel tank, or 5 minutes.
If it is to current cars, battery exchange with no testing seems to be the only thing possible, or lend you a car.

stopcrazypp good thought, maybe it is a hybrid battery where the Metal-Air portion is swappable is possible. Is the entire battery space filled even with the 85 KWh?
