Battery Pack?

I've been thinking about this for a while. What about a standard size battery pack that slides into a housing where the fuel tank would normally be. You go to the filling station, someone brings over a trolley, pulls out the old pack and slides in the new one. Changing packs shouldn't take longer than filling a fuel tank.

Long range zero emission driving. Standard size packs mean that as new designs with greater storage capacity are developed, the range between pack changes increases. Viable idea?
