e-wheels
Makers behind the Gogoro Smartscooter—powered by Panasonic auto-grade lithium-ion cells, it has a top speed of 100 kmph—are planning a network of ATM-like stations that will allow owners to stop and swap their depleted batteries for new ones. A monthly plan will include unlimited batteries and roadside assistance.

Water systems
The Axor Starck V from Hansgrohe India is an example of stylish utility. The easy-click-in design and safety-stop functions make it easy to remove the glass body from its base to clean it, even without having to close the valve. Its material—dirt-resistant crystal glass in high-quality—makes it dishwasher friendly.
