InductEV, a leading innovator in high-power wireless charging solutions for commercial electric vehicles, announced that the U.S.’s largest EV manufacturer, Tesla, will incorporate wireless charging technology in its upcoming Robotaxi. This decision underscores the growing recognition that wireless charging is pivotal to the future of electric mobility. InductEV’s high-power (up to 450 kW) wireless charging system has been active in commercial sectors across the U.S. and Europe since 2017.
Key Highlights
- Tesla’s Robotaxi will feature inductive wireless charging upon its release, expected in 2027.
- InductEV’s high-power wireless solutions have been operating since 2017, serving municipal transit, port, and freight operations.
- InductEV has received three new U.S. patents this year, adding to its 116 worldwide.
- Recent agreements include deploying wireless charging for Seattle’s Sound Transit double-decker buses and wireless charging electric port tractors at AP Moeller Maersk Terminal.
John F. Rizzo, CEO of InductEV, stated, “Tesla’s entry into the wireless charging space is exciting and further validates the vision that InductEV has been pursuing since inception.” InductEV primarily focuses on electrifying commercial fleets, transit agencies, and port terminals, which require high-power and high-duty cycle operations.
InductEV’s on-route wireless charging solutions allow for seamless replacement of diesel vehicles, achieving efficiency levels that wired depot charging often struggles to match. This approach can result in a 25% reduction in total ownership costs compared to traditional wired chargers.
This year, InductEV also achieved new milestones, including partnerships with Seattle’s Sound Transit and Volvo for various wireless charging projects. By 2026, half of all battery electric buses in Washington are projected to utilize InductEV’s technology.
As the wireless charging landscape in the U.S. grows rapidly, InductEV remains the leading provider of high-power, scalable solutions for commercial electric vehicles. Its proven, patented technology ensures efficient real-world applications, helping commercial fleets maximize their operational time while supporting a sustainable future.
