When the charge on the scooter runs low, you stop by a station and swap the batteries with fresh ones. Gogoro charges a monthly subscription fee for this service.

Next to the battery swap network Gogoro also offers a home charging station called a GoCharger that charges both batteries in 150 minutter.

The range of the batteries is 125 km.
