Detroit is now home to the country’s first chunk of road that can wirelessly charge an electric vehicle (EV), whether it’s parked or moving.
Why it matters: Wireless charging on an electrified roadway could remove one of the biggest hassles of owning an EV: the need to stop and plug in regularly.
This is America son, I can drive 11 hours a day and still be in the same state.
Same here in canada, but we also have to deal with winter being 50% of the year here. Charging and batteries need to come a loooong way before we can even think about having one…
Wrap the battery in heat tape and plug it into itself. lol
It still operates fine in winter, its just that you need to expend so much more energy that you lose half the range
