    As of now, Zeno is targeting Africa and India with pricing roughly equivalent to $1,000 for the model with the battery subscription. Zeno says it’s selling the first 5,000 battery subscription-based units in India for about $750 before the price goes up to $1,000.

        It’s $30 to get access to their battery distribution network, which is optional. That might be a pretty good deal for some if the network is good enough, but you could just buy everything yourself and charge at home/work/etc without the sub.
