Modular charging stations developed by start-up company Ample can be set up anywhere in just three days<\/h2>\n

Stellantis \u2013 the automotive goliath behind brands such as Fiat, Vauxhall, Peugeot and Citroen \u2013 has found a way to get a full charge into its electric cars in \u201cless than five minutes\u201d using\u00a0 innovative battery-swapping technology.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all made possible by modular batteries developed by San Francisco-based start-up Ample and the two companies are now working together to integrate the potentially game-changing battery tech into Stellantis\u2019s range of EVs, which currently include cars like the Fiat 500 and Jeep Avenger.<\/p>\n

Ample\u2019s modular cells have been designed as a drop-in replacement for any EV\u2019s original battery, meaning Stellantis won\u2019t have to reengineer any of its platforms or its cars. And being so flexible, Ample\u2019s technology allows for varying battery sizes, created simply by swapping in a different number of battery modules as needed.<\/p>\n
