Among the objectives of Stellantis there is also that of developing the technology of battery swappingalready tested by Geely and Nio which allows the replacing the flat battery of an electric car in less than five minutes. This isn’t just an idea in the area but a real project, so much so that Stellantis with Ample they signed a binding agreement for a collaboration on electric vehicle (EV) battery charging technology, allowing a full battery charge in less than five minutes.
Fast charging Fiat 500e with battery swap
The partnership signed by Stellantis provides for the integration of the solution Modular Battery Swapping by Ample in Stellantis electric vehicles. This battery swapping technology allows electric vehicle drivers to replace a discharged battery with a fully charged one in just a few minutes, simply by stopping at one trading station.
The pilot program is scheduled to launch in 2024 Madridin Spain, on a fleet of 100 Fiat 500e within the scope of the service car sharing Free2move of Stellantis.
Battery Swap by Stellantis and Ample
The technology of Ample offers an alternative to power electric vehicles, thanks to Battery Swap, guaranteeing fast charging times similar to refueling.
Ample’s modular batteries are designed to substitute those of existing electric vehicles, without requiring modifications to vehicle platforms. Battery swapping stations can be installed in public areas in just three days, providing a flexible infrastructure ready to meet motorists’ demand.
How battery swapping works
