What was not mentioned, or I did not see, is the efficiency of the wireless system, i.e. how many kwh must flow into the floor pad for 1 kwh to flow into the battery. A “park it and forget it” system removes the daily challenge, but unless the price is low, as MMF said, “a waste of money.”

So we can get more lazy than ever? So we can waste another 10-15% in efficiency during charging?

A waste of money.
