It feels like Neo is the opposite of where things should go. The great thing about EV is that every outlet is a refueling station. More EV charging for apartment buildings and parking lots feels like the answer. Those battery swap stations are insanely complex and expensive, and the complexity and added weight on the car are very significant. Unlike a gas station that just needs two nozzle types, or an EV charging port standard, having to standardize battery packs for everything from compacts to trucks would be a nightmare. Most people are not taking hundreds of mile road trips most of the time. Slow charging your car while it sits at home or at work or at the shop will work for 90% of cases. I could see the case for industrial or work vehicles, where keeping them running constantly is a legitimate need, but for personal vehicles that sit in driveways, parking lots, or garages 80% of every day, battery swaps feel like massive overkill.
