Club Sportiva has been a fan, and keeper of Teslas for some time now, so it’s always exciting to see Mr. Musk make exciting new developments within the brand and in the entire electric car arena. As if the Supercharger stations weren’t neat enough, Tesla recently showcased 90-second battery swap technology at its L.A. showroom. The technology is just as it sounds…rather than waiting to charge, just swap out your battery pack for a fully-charged one. The driver stays in the car while the same type of assembly line machines remove the 1,000-pound battery and replace with a fully charged unit. How to pay? The credit card on file will be charged automatically, with no need for a cashier. The swap stations are planned to be implemented alongside the supercharger stations and will begin popping up between L.A. and S.F. soon, eventually making it to D.C. on the East Coast. Before you go, be sure to take a look at our stunning Tesla Model S Performance.
