Here is an interesting solid-state battery development: https://thepack.news/gogoro-unveils-worlds-first-swappable-solid-state-battery-prototype-for-electric-vehicles/

Thanks for this, Richard. Interesting that Yamaha is going to partner with Gogoro in Taiwan. And I recall Hero being a player many years ago in the swappable idea.

I think the concept is great, but I don't know about leasing batteries and setting up a convent swappable and maintainable infrastructure around a big city could be a difficult and expensive task.

I don't know if you figure it would work like those Red Box movie kiosks which works pretty well.  If you had a battery station at every 7-11 and Walmart would work great.
