In the future, battery\ncharging will not only involve cable charging but also battery swap\ntechnology. If there are no obstacles, electric car battery swap\nstations from Aulton will begin operating in the second half of this\nyear. Steven Qu, General Manager of the International Business Division\nof Aulton New Energy Ltd Co, revealed that preparations are underway to\nintroduce this service. \u201cThe first station in Jakarta will be at the end\nof August,\u201d Qu said when confirmed in Guangzhou, China, on Wednesday\n(22\/4\/2026). However, he kept information about the strategic partner\nclose. \u201cFor the ecosystem, it\u2019s not just us, but also with partners. But\nfor now, I can\u2019t say,\u201d he stated. The technology to be brought to\nIndonesia is the latest version. Qu explained that the battery swap\nstations to be introduced use seventh-generation technology. Its main\nadvantage lies in time efficiency, where electric car users do not need\nto wait long as with conventional charging. This means the electric car\nbattery replacement process takes less than two minutes, equivalent to\nthe time it takes to refuel at a petrol station in general. In agreement\nwith Qu, Shawn Xiang, Project Manager of the International Business\nDivision of Aulton, said Jakarta will be the location for the initial\noperational pilot. \u201cIt\u2019s planned for August. Other cities will follow,\nbut can\u2019t be mentioned yet,\u201d Xiang said.<\/p>",
