Hot swap-able battery services seems like such a good concept that would only work in countries where companies are willing to set a standard and collaborate. I would love to see this concept in the US.

Based on the method of battery swapping in video, the batteries would most likely be stolen if it's in US. With lawlessness in US, a lot of nice things won't work even if implemented.

I can already tell that this concept soon will fail when people learn to build things around it. imagine you understand the concept and build a battery pack for you solar panel at home using these batteries? and now you are not just using it for travel instead you are charging your battery in the station and use it to power your house. when these thing happens, people will soon steal these batteries and that is when the concept start to Fail. coz the company will end up losing money from stolen batteries or battery swapped with broken one.

Hello, hi there! I am one of the first 50 global owners of a Gogoro. Welcome to Taiwan to experience this advanced and cool electric scooter and battery swapping system. For nearly nine years, I have ridden my Gogoro 1 all over Taiwan, checking in at battery swap stations, and have accumulated over 220,000 kilometers. I hope you have the opportunity to ride a Gogoro around Taiwan and complete a round-island journey.

That is some impressive scooter power. And I love the swappable battery tech. Looks like you had an interesting time in Taiwan.

What a great opportunity! That was an awesome tour.

Very cool video. Loved seeing the Taiwan trip and those Gogoros are so cool.

Taiwan looks fun

Cool look into Taiwan

good choice for a vacation / work destination Taiwan is AMAZING in so many ways. (MTC 1990-1993 making Mandarin my second language), and we have done trips back in 2010, 2014 and 2018. The GOGO RO swap system is fantastic for Taipei. FOOD is amazing, Yamingshan is a GREAT Test. (rode that in the old days on my 125cc Sanyang classic motorcycle) have fun and eat some Beef Noodle Soup Nio ro Mian. If your mountain climb is there on the north side of Taipei there are 7 peaks of around 1100 meters (Taiwan's mountains reach 4000 meters on the tallest one further south) Still very impressive to up there at all on electric scoots. Great riding area, and mirrors are great on the switchbacks to see around the corners a bit for safety. Be sure to return to Taiwan there is far more to see around the island (really multiple islands, but even the main island)

Taiwan highway allows no two wheeled vehicle. Even the physical speed limit for these beasts are maybe 120 or even above.

Oh my, your videos are dangerous to my financial situation, I already have a cargo e-bike and a cruiser type, but now I want a Gogoro scooter. I would love to see a system like this in the US, maybe even for cars with swappable batteries.

I never thought id want a electric scooter but with swappable battery station that could even be set up at gas stations that changes the game on a hole new level

Buying gogro stock after seeing this

Awesome video, I'm a fan of Gogoro and can't wait to see them progress with more success. I wish we had electric scooter only highways here in the states.

I'm enjoying a visit to Taiwan vicariously with you!

Never heard of this before or the battery swapping system. Props to them, we will see if in the future they can extend to more countries.

Thanks for bringing me along

This is such a great idea. Delivery riders would probably love these scooters, but I would love it, also, as a commuter vehicle.

Thanks for the info, look like you had a lot of fun . Keep it coming 😊

That was a fun video filled with so much content! I think more trip videos may be in your future! 😊

WOW, what a scooter.

This trip looks like it was so much fun. Thanks for sharing it. This trip is now officially on my bucket list, haha. Those swappable battery electric scooters in a big city who's infrastructure is built with scooters in mind is incredible. So many cars that don't need to be driving where a scooter is all that is needed to get around.

Sick !!!! Looks like a fun ride, hope you enjoyed the trip. That’s dedication!

Great vid, Taiwan is such a nice place to visit, very efficient public transport but lots of scooters. Would have been interesting to know how much distance between battery swaps and if the mountain ascent had any significant impact on the duration of charge - but gives me something to look up!

Cannot wait for this to come out in the UK. 😊

Cant wait to see this concept in the us with ebikes. We need hot swap stations so we are not waiting for hrs at a time to charge ..

I wish to experience the fun you are going.thanks for the share.

Amazing trip, I enjoyed the clips showing us around the Taipei! I love the look of thoser Gogoro scooters, I wish they would come to the US (especially with that charging network). Do you have any specs on that Pulse scooter? Range? Top speed?

Great (travel) video. Yes Taiwan is awesome. Gogoro doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue I have to say lol Awesome products though!

This is the type of infrastructure we need here in the states. It would help someone like me keep my independence.

Battery technology needs to evolve more before EV's become more ubiquitous. Currently, the environmental damage from the materials and energy required to build batteries with a limited lifespan limits their potential advantage over fossil fuels.

very interesting system been reading on the so1 scooter and so4 car use same batteries removable

Please show more in depth on the factory if you can.

It's a shame laws in the US have basically made mopeds irrelevant. In many states you still have to be 16 years old just like a normal car to drive yet they also have a speed restriction of 25-28mph depending on the state. It makes them have basically no advantages at all absolutely killing their value in the market. Plus some states also require a separate license, though usually it's a one time thing with no test. If you had anything faster it has to be registered as a motorcycle and you now need a motorcycle license and insurance. That just ruins the benefits of it if it has all the complications of a car without the ability to drive in the rain.

Please get in contact with me I'm having a problem figuring out what type throttle to buy for the controller for my 1000 w 47 volt I just started building electric bikes from kits my controller and throttling bad I bought a correct controller but I do not know how to find the throttle to match the controller

how diffiult would it be to charge a 48v ebike battery with a victron MPPT?

Seems like a good deal overall.

welcome

I really enjoy your videos I have a 10 yo ebike that I tried replacing the 36v 20ah battery with a 36v 10ah battery that failed on the first day Should I try again with another new 36-10ah or is it necessary to use na 36v 20ah battery

Hi bro.i want travel with my ebike using solar panel for charging my 48 v battery and i want learn how i calculate the power from solar to my battery ?

Congrats Matthew, do we have to enter every time or is our entry always there for the next one?

Maybe I missed it in the video. How much do they cost to swap, and how much do the scooters cost to buy. Also I'm curious how long it takes to charge those depleted batteries

have we all been spelling your name wrong this whole time or did the airport spell it wrong??? lol great video dude

I am more than curious about the Pulse, a few things I need to know, first off, will it come to the US? Second, can you charge at home and bring spare batteries to avoid using their battery stations and paid plans? And lastly, what is the final USD price on these things? I keep coming up with different totals, $3000 would be the sweet spot to make me save and pull the trigger, any higher and I'd just look into a Chrome Night

So.. the user has to purchase the scooter first, then a monthly subscription to the battery swap service? What are the associated costs involved? Can a user recharge their scooters at home, is there an advantage to do so? The food looked amazing! You should do more trips like this.
