Is swapping batteries socially acceptable now? IIUC, the big problem is that people didn't want to end up with a worse battery than their current one.

  With frequent swapping it’s not a big concern. Batteries that become unhealthy are taken out of circulation, so you’re guaranteed a minimum level of performance, and can always swap again.

    And of course you can always purchase a Swap Premium membership, to guarantee only batteries which still have > 90% capacity are used for your vehicle!

      Wait. You mean I’d have the option to use perfectly fine batteries that would be more available and save money? Sounds pretty good.

        Absolutely! For even more savings, why not try out ad-supported CommuterLite package?

  Perhaps this will end up being a non-problem if all the cars are owned by car sharing (taxis) operators.
