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.

Haha I assumed this was to bill the EVs so that it would cost more to drive them than ICEs.

I'm perhaps too cynical these days.
