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.

    As I said to the other commenter, if you get a weekend of free time that you want to burn down, I highly encourage you to try doing a trip in a Model 3 (if you’re in the US, I absolutely cannot recommend CCS infrastructure right now). I think you’d be surprised how much of a non-issue it can be if you build any form of food break in the trip, whether it’s driving -> breakfast -> driving or whatnot.
