I exit the Better Place center in Pi Glilot excited, thrilled, full of ambition and energy.
Visitors get an up-close demonstration of how Better Place makes electric vehicles unlimited in range – by switching depleted lithium ion batteries for fully charged ones in just minutes.
Better Place works with leading battery and vehicle manufacturers, like Renault, A123Systems and AESC, to develop lithium-ion batteries for Electric Vehicles that are high-performing and recyclable.
Better Place announced its support for federal legislation aimed at catalyzing electric vehicle (EV) adoption in the US, the Electric Vehicle Deployment Act (EVDA), introduced by a leading bipartisan group.
There is a growing consensus in the financial industry that electric vehicles (EVs) are poised to transform the car market over the next 5 to 20 years.
Better Place and Chery signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate on technology for switchable-battery electric vehicles.
We all know why it is imperative that the U.S. addresses its dependence on oil. The only question is – will the U.S. lead this transition or will it lag behind other countries in capitalizing on this opportunity?
Better Place demonstrated the world’s first switchable-battery electric taxi in partnership with the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry, and Nihon Kotsu, Tokyo’s largest taxi operator.
How clean is the taxi? What kind of music is playing? Does the driver speak English? Is the driver honest about the route? Does the driver put on a hard sell for a tip?
