After testing a wireless charging system made by WiTricity Corp., there's no doubt in my mind that it is far better than any plug-in EV charger.
But that still might not be enough to ensure commercial success — at least right away.
A wireless charger eliminates many of the hassles and snags that are sapping the performance and reliability of plug-in chargers. There's no button to press to open a charge port door. No plugs to deal with. No credit card information to input. Wireless charging can also make living with an EV easier for physically challenged drivers.
