Why we are different

We believe ALL electric powered cars should be able to replenish their power (energy store/battery) via plugging in when the customer has the time and exchanging the battery when they desire a 3 minute power infusion.

We believe clean transportation goes beyond the vehicles themselves.

  • Yes, there is a need for public accessibility to battery charging stations.
  • Yes, we need to update our energy infrastructure and make it smarter.
  • Yes, there is a need for government and private sector partnerships.

Our approach focuses cross three (3) fundamental aspects of the electric vehicle transportation environment; the car itself, the batteries used to store the energy, and the battery exchange infrastructure.

With a battery exchange vehicle (BEV) and an EVIN exchange infrastructure network, we believe the need for $Billions to rebuild an aging grid can be significantly reduced.

Can an Electric Vehicle simply become “the Car”?

We’ve seen Detroit’s mistake of taking a full-size Chevy Tahoe, reducing it's size to accommodate weight considerations, reducing the engine size and drive-train, and augmenting with a minimal electric motor.

All this was done to meet the customer's desire to have a “green” SUV, while adding only a few miles per gallon more of fuel efficiency.  Once the re-engineered Tahoe hybrid was delivered, many customers returned their hybrid models and selected the gas-only powered full-size Tahoe vehicle.

Why? The Tahoe Hybrid did not fit the “total package”, the customer experience.

  • The trunk space was too small for what they were used to transporting.
  • The weight and power dynamics were not sufficient to pull their boats, RVs, and trailers.
  • The extra fuel efficiency, green factor, was not compelling enough to overcome the deficiencies in the customer experience.

Detroit’s response was that customers were not willing to pay for “green”. Once again, they have misinterpreted the facts and demonstrated their inability to get beyond their traditional way of thinking.

Although Detroit misunderstood the outcomes of their “green” experiment, we at EVIN have not.

We firmly believe the total package of the car has to meet the customer’s experience expectations.

Nothing less will do.

That is why our approach allows the customer to have the exact same customer experience with an EVIN compliant electric vehicle as they would get from a gas powered vehicle.

The car is essentially the same, no overt weight or size modifications, no half-hearted green add-ons, just the replacement of the fossil fuel power-train (engine) with an electric energy power-train (electric motor). 

We believe once the general public and automotive manufacturers, see regular-looking cars that area also 100% electric cars and being driven as cars have always been, the manufacturers will more quickly adopt a battery exchange methodology in their production cars.
