CATL Pairs Swappable Packs with Reserve Batteries for Heavy-Duty Electric Trucks

Battery giant CATL is introducing a hybrid energy solution for commercial electric semi-trucks that pairs swappable battery packs with a dedicated onboard reserve battery. The setup is designed to prevent drivers from being stranded if a swap station is out of reach or fully occupied. By integrating a supplementary buffer into heavy-duty haulers, the system aims to ease range anxiety and keep commercial transport moving seamlessly.
