SMART ELECTRIC FUEL FOR SHARED MOBILITY
Cheaper. Cleaner. Faster.
WE BELIEVE IN MAKING DUMB THINGS SMART, SO THAT EXPENSIVE THINGS CAN BECOME CHEAP.
Our out-of-the box thinking breaks last battery technology barrier by combining technologies from mobile networks and the internet.
FLEXIBLE CAPACITY
Tanktwo battery users have the freedom to tailor their battery packs to their driving needs. Optimizing battery size reduces cost, weight, and daily energy consumption.
FAST SWAP, SLOW CHARGE
Tanktwo vehicles can swap a full tank of depleted cells for charged cells in less than 3 minutes. Slow charging within a vehicle or at a Cell Swap Station lengthens battery life and decreases lifetime cost.
LOWER COSTS
Tanktwo String Cells can be shared between vehicles to lower overall battery cost per vehicle in a fleet. Commute during the week and drive 24/7 for Uber on the weekends; power a school bus during the day and a delivery van in the evening.

Founded in 2012, Tanktwo is a Finnish-American startup dedicated to drastically improving EV performance through the application of established principles from other industries within battery technology. Here at Tanktwo, we draw inspiration from mobile networks, internet routing protocols, and consumer electronics industries, and utilise data-driven methods in ensuring that our batteries perform at a significantly higher level of efficiency.
Despite decades of billion-dollar investments in the development of improved battery technology, EV drivers and engineers alike are far from satisfied with current battery performance. Rather than attempt to force breakthroughs in electrochemistry, Tanktwo searches for inspiration and innovative solutions in seemingly unrelated industries.
The good news? There are many.

Tanktwo is a battery technology startup, and was founded in 2012. It is our mission to drastically improve EV battery performance by applying established principles from other industries. Most inspiration comes from 2G, 3G and 4G mobile networks, internet routing protocols, and consumer electronics industries. We follow a strongly data-driven method for making batteries perform significantly more work.
Tanktwo chose to pursue this path because, despite decades-long billion-dollar level investments in battery development, the users of batteries are very far from satisfied with the current levels of battery performance. Instead of trying to force Nobel-prize breakthroughs in battery chemistry – or hoping for someone else to do so – we started looking for other improvement opportunities. The good news is: There were many.
WHAT THE MEDIA SAYS
“At first glance, Tanktwo’s ideas seem like just another gimmicky concept for battery swapping. But once we got beneath the surface, we realized the company’s plan is much bolder. Tanktwo doesn’t just want to resurrect the battery swapping discussion – it wants you to completely throw out any preconceptions of batteries.”
“Tanktwo has the weirdest EV battery we’ve ever seen. When it comes to EV batteries, Finnish-American startup Tanktwo is thinking outside the box, and inside the tank.” autoblog.com
“This Company May Have Solved the Electric Car Charging Problem. At New York City’s Tech Day 2016, The Observer got a look at the new solution for electric car charging from Tanktwo, which can fully charge a car in minutes rather than hours. observer.com
