That’s it.”

China also expanding in Hungary

An innovative Chinese e-car company is to build a battery swap station factory in Hungary. According to the Chinese press, the company NIO is building a factory here. However, the China-based multinational electric car manufacturer will not assemble cars in Hungary, but battery swap stations and charging stations, according to the article.

As 444.hu writes, NIO is a unique e-car company in an important respect: its models are available in two different versions:

  • with a battery installed in the usual way, rechargeable at home or at a charging station;
  • with a replaceable battery.

In the latter case, the buyer purchases the car without a battery (at a correspondingly lower price) in exchange for a monthly rental fee for the replaceable battery.
