The endurance of electric cars is soon to receive a timely boost.
電動車的續航力,將很快獲得及時的提昇。

One California company unveiled a solution — a prototype energy station that swaps electric vehicles' empty batteries for fully charged ones.
加州的一家公司公布了一項解決方案—利用一種雛型能源站,讓電動車拿用完的電池交換充­飽的電池。

The Better Place Company hopes such networks would replace existing conventional gas stations sometime in the near future.
好所在公司希望這樣的運作方式,能夠在不遠的將來取代現行一般的汽車加油站。

[Yoav Heichal, Chief Engineer, Better Place]:
"A switch station is actually a gas station for electric vehicles. But it's clean because you're using the energy from solar panels or a wind turbine. So you get a very clean solution because the energy is clean and the vehicle doesn't create any emission, so it's very friendly for the environment."
[Yoav Heichal,主工程師,好所在公司]:
「交換站實際上就是電動車的加油站。因為電動車使用的能源是來自太陽能板或風力渦輪機­,所以它是無污染的。這個方案是非常環保的,而因為這種能源無污染,所以車子不會製造­任何排放物。這對環境來說是非常友善的。」

The demonstration in Yokohama Japan used a Nissan electric car to highlight the automated process.
在日本橫濱的展示上,使用了一台Nissan的電動車來突顯這種自動化的程序。

The company says the system allows an electric vehicle to travel theoretically "unlimited distances" if it keeps swapping batteries.
這間公司表示,如果持續交換電池,這套系統理論上能讓一台電動車一直行走,沒有距離限­制。

Much like with mobile phone contracts, customers simply choose the distance they want to travel. They subscribe to various monthly plans tailored to best suit their driving needs. Under the current business plan, the batteries will belong to the switching stations, not to the individual car owners.
和手機合約一樣,顧客只需要選擇他們要的旅程。他們按月認購各式各樣的客制化方案,來­滿足他們的駕駛需求。在目前的商業計畫之下,電池將屬於交換站,而非車主本人。

Potential markets include Israel, Denmark, the U.S. West Coast, Australia, Japan and the Canadian city of Ontario.
潛在市場包括以色列、丹麥、美國西岸、澳洲、日本,以及加拿大安大略省等都市。
