At these EV garages , you will pay for the juice in the " juiced up " batteries which can easily and quickly be retro fitted in the begging EV . Your GPS Garmin will liase with the battery management system to provide you information about the range left in the current battery ( pun intended ) and the nearest appropriate EV garage for a refill replacement . While information on road , weather , traffic and tyre ( maybe dampers ) conditions will also determine battery range and offer more prospects to the would be EV motorist . We see this as an extension of your work , where probably new legislation will be necessary to standardize the facilities and corresponding hardware at a global level . We wish you our fondest regards from Ladysmith ( Kwazulu Natal ) in cold sunny South Africa , Charles and friends . Dear RGET ,
we hope that in the near distant future your pioneering
work will have transformed the EV landscape such that
the batteries can easily be swapped so to say , for
fully charged ones from any so called electric garage
which will operate in parallel with today’s conventional
garages ( tyres will still need to be correctly pressurized
and maybe batteries will have to be water cooled while
future windscreens and maybe even aero foils will need
to be washed for better aero dynamics ) .
