Innovations on charging electric vehicle batteries with wireless technology has been proceeded for several years. With gaps between surfaces of as much as 12 centimeters recharging of buses in Korea was achieved. MTC TEchnology's Evatran in 2010 is said to have developed a plugless electric vehicle recharging system. One hopes the U.S. Government is funding serious research into making major southern urban highways wireless electric vehicle recharging loops as are the Koreans.
When electric cars can draw power from cables under the road surface they need not have batteries so large to get around. Weight and cost of e.v.'s could drop.
The Korean development program is named the Online Electric Vehicle
