CATL's first Choco-Swap battery-swapping station in Yichang opened on November 11, enabling 99-second battery swaps without drivers leaving their vehicles. The station can handle up to 600 swaps a day.
Choco-Swap is CATL's standardized battery-swapping system for passenger cars. Its batteries are designed as modular blocks, named for their resemblance to chocolate bars, that are swapped out rather than recharged in place.
