Depends on how quick the swap takes. If a normal charge would take 20 minutes and you’re doing a bathroom/food break anyway then it’s basically no extra time. If you need to stand next to a battery swap for a few minutes and move when it’s done then it’s extra.

EVs are weird. Certain usage patterns mean less time waiting than ICE vehicles.
