Gogoro is a borderline scam.
There are not multiple battery providers. You can only get batteries through gogoro and they dictate the price (it govt fixed for X amount of year and then who knows what happensl. Till recently you couldn't charge the scooter/batteries at home (even now it's made impractical)
You in effect are renting your vehicle
It's only successful in Taiwan due to slick marketing and intense nationalism
