Interesting timing on Tesla's part - announcing battery swap
stations less than 4 weeks after battery-swap based Better Place
announced (May 26) that they are shutting down.
This is either an amazing fast pivot, or more likely Tesla had the
swap capability designed in, but the swap station plan held in
reserve to be able to announce swapping so quickly after the
departure of Better Place from the battery swap niche.
