Eco Cars: Tesla Model S sedan can recharge in five minutes with swappable batteries
Anupam | Sep 29 2009

Eco Factor: All-electric car with swappable batteries.

Tesla Motor’s forthcoming all-electric Model S sedan will have the ability to recharge in less than five minutes, courtesy swappable batteries that can be exchanged with new ones in less than five minutes, which is same amount of time it takes to fill up a regular car with gas at a gas station.

The system will definitely interest those who aren’t buying electric cars for the simple reason that they don’t want to wait for hours to recharge their ride. The Model S will come with three battery pack options – for ranges of 165, 235 and 300 miles respectively.
