BATTERY SWAP IN EUROPE 
The battery rental purchase option is not available. certainly a novelty; in Europe. In the past, Renault also offered it for its Zoe. NIO focuses on battery swap to push this formula. The expansion plans of this network of battery exchange stations in the Old Continent are ambitious. We know that the brand has also opened a factory in Hungary to produce its infrastructure.
Currently, there are still very few active stations in the Old Continent. The last one is been opened in these days in Sweden and in December it will arrive; the first of the Netherlands. If indeed NIO is going to succeed? As this infrastructure grows rapidly also in Europe, the purchase with rental of the battery could be an increasingly popular option. interesting.
