One of the biggest pain points that comes with driving an electric vehicle is the time it takes to charge the battery. Startup Ample's new technology can give drivers a full charge in about the same time it takes to fill a gas tank. Ample's model runs on the idea that the fastest charge is the one you never have to do. Its next-generation battery-swapping station can replace the battery on an electric vehicle in about five minutes. That's half the time of Ample's first-gen station.
