Black technology starts from the steel suit

Chapter 118 118 Rental Batteries
"At the same time, 5G smart high-speed driverless driving has also entered the application testing stage. These provide unlimited imagination for the next smart transportation, including us."

"Yes, you heard me right. In fact, it is not only the self-driving technology that is limited, but also the communication speed that also limits the application of the self-driving technology. It can even be said that the latter is the biggest limitation, because AI can be said to be A service window, it depends on the computing power provided by the supercomputer and the support of the network!"

"Be optimistic. In the future, we may not need to take a driver's license, because unmanned driving will help us solve this problem. At that time, driving technology may become a hobby rather than a necessary skill..."

"After introducing its hardware and software, we will introduce its support and services next. The first is the charging station. It may not be appropriate to call it that way."

"Although its charging time is long enough, it still can't be as fast and convenient as a fuel car."

"So we discussed later, since his battery pack is so cheap and has a very long service life. Wouldn't it be more convenient for us to simply provide a complete set of battery replacement services?

We have done a special experiment: it only takes about 3 minutes to replace all the batteries for a car, and the replaced battery will continue to be charged and fully charged before being replaced by the next person.

3 minutes, this speed, I think it should be about the same as the time it takes to refuel at a gas station, even slightly faster than a gas station.

Battery rental only needs to pay some deposit and insurance fee. If the battery pack is not artificially damaged, no compensation is required, and the insurance can be taken directly.It's the power in the battery pack that really costs money, and it's not that expensive.That is to say, it is slightly more expensive than charging at a charging station. "

"Maybe someone will ask, why bother?"

"I went directly to the charging station to charge, and you only spent 5 minutes. The difference between 3 minutes and 5 minutes is not very big."

"I really need to explain here. For everyone, the 3-minute battery replacement time and 5-minute charging time are indeed not much different, but there is a big gap for you in service facilities."

"In fact, our charging station coverage rate is already very high, but that is compared to those big guys with a cruising range of thousands of kilometers. When they have 100km left in their cruising range, they start calling the police. The remaining mileage is enough. They drove to the outlying charging station."

"Yes, considering the economic benefits and construction costs, most of the charging stations are actually built in the suburbs or the fringes of the urban area, but such a construction plan obviously does not meet our needs of."

"After all, we have to know that our cruising range is only more than 100 kilometers. We can't be either charging or on the way to charge?"

"And there is another problem, that is, the safety problem and the cost problem!"

"Everyone should know that to achieve a full charge in 5 minutes, the power of the charger needs to be very high, at least 100kw. This problem is not a problem when there are few new energy vehicles, but in new After energy vehicles are fully promoted, its peak load will put a lot of pressure on the grid, and its cost is much higher than the cost of setting up battery rental stations.”

"And the grid load in some areas is already very high. The cost of adding power equipment in this area is very high. If you just open a charging station, it may not cost too much money. But if you add the money to transform the power equipment, it may It will be hundreds of millions, and may even reach tens of figures.”

"But if you directly open a rental station, you won't spend that much money. After all, it is enough to purchase [-] sets of batteries. A rental station will not use [-] batteries anyway."

Speaking of this, everyone agrees with the other party: as we all know, infrastructure construction is indeed a very huge investment, and the cost recovery cycle is particularly long.

People who are more concerned about financial management have discovered that the interest rate of national debt this year is slightly higher than before, and the amount is much larger than before. This is undoubtedly a signal.

Of course, everyone is definitely not worried that the country will not pay back the money. After all, compared with those foreign governments, our credibility is still relatively high, but this also shows that the government has started to run out of money.

Of course, if you have money, you can’t do that. Putting charging stations in urban areas or even the city center is not only uneconomical, but also unsafe. The cost and difficulty of renovation are high, and the pace of work in urban areas is so fast Nervous, one day of delay will lose one day of money!
"If they are separated, how will the car be counted?" Someone asked curiously.

"The price of our car is 1.38 yuan. This is the price of a naked car. It does not include any fees. It is also the national unified retail price. If the price is not like this, you can call our official complaint number, and we will send a complaint to the headquarters. People handle it."

"When you buy a car, there is no change in the type of normal car insurance. The only extra item is the battery insurance. Refer to the different partners in different places, and it may fluctuate between 120 yuan and 135 yuan."

"Our new cars do not include batteries when they are sold. At the same time, we need everyone to sign a car battery lease contract, including a deposit of 1000 yuan and a battery usage fee of 8-10 yuan."

"If it's daytime, it's 10 yuan for battery usage, and if it's night, it's 8 yuan for battery usage. I believe the service staff at the rental station will not be too happy. Who knows what it feels like to work the night shift..."

……

Ignoring the host on stage, or the method of attracting people called the product strategy officer, everyone is more concerned about economic interests, that is to say, is it worthwhile to buy such a car? It is cost-effective in terms of cost of use. The oil price is about 7 yuan, and the fuel consumption in urban areas is very high, and the cost of using it for 100 kilometers is almost [-] yuan.

But if you use new energy vehicles, the cost of use is almost only 1/10 of that of fuel vehicles.

Moreover, new energy vehicles do not seem to be expensive. The naked car is only 15000. With subsidies or something, the landing price of the whole vehicle should not exceed [-]. From this aspect, it seems that it should be chosen.

But that’s not how the account is calculated. We also need to consider the inconvenience of using it. After all, the original intention of buying a car is to facilitate travel. If you spend money to bring back an ancestor, no one is willing to do so: new energy vehicles = ancestors!

(Newcomers and new books ask for support. I went to the hospital yesterday. I am really sorry. These two days seem to be unlucky. I forgot to turn off the air conditioner at night)
