Tesla has long been trying to automate not only the process of driving electric vehicles, but also their charging, so it first developed a snake-like automatic manipulator that connects the charging station cable to the electric vehicle port, and then hinted at the development of wireless charging technology. Tesla Cybertruck pickups are initially ready for its implementation.
At least, this is the conclusion reached by members of the Cybertruck owner forum who have studied the service manual for these Tesla pickups. In the documentation, as Electrek explains, there is a mention of the presence on the body of the traction battery of two four-pin connectors, which are used both to power the air conditioning compressor and to connect a certain wireless charging circuit.
Apparently, the circuit itself is not on Cybertruck pickups currently being produced, but the company can, if necessary, install it later, when the corresponding infrastructure is developed. Recent experiments by American scientists have shown that wireless charging can transmit quite high power, and for the Cybertruck in particular, the use of such technology may only result in the problem of an increased gap between the bottom of the pickup truck and the receiving circuit of the wireless charging system. The introduction of such charging methods for Tesla is important in the context of the company's desire to free drivers from performing familiar functions. The cars will move on their own, but it would also be convenient to recharge them without the involvement of a person connecting the charging cable to the electric vehicle port.
