This would really get me to switch to one - just paying for the car sans battery, and having battery swap stations. Sadly the available charging infrastructure is a nonstarter for me. I don't have a big house or a garage so even charging off of 120v plugs does not work.
Yes, they’re leaving the vast majority of apartment occupants (like myself) and probably other types of residencies in the cold. It’s not that oil doesn’t have a similar problem. A tank of gas easily weighs over 100lbs (per a quick search). It just benefits from being a liquid.
We make it work with two Teslas living in an apartment with no chargers on site. Need either charging at work or a close Supercharger or nearby fast public chargers to make it work. Preferably at least two out of those three.
