Has anyone released an electric car which came with an extra battery for trip replacements, and gave you the ability to buy more batteries for longer trips?

The batteries weigh a few hundred pounds I think so it would be like replacing your motor mid roadtrip.

There's trucks with swappable batteries but it all lacks a universal format.
