Volkswagen has revealed details of a futuristic carpark that sees cars parking and recharging themselves (if required) upon settling into a space.
Called ‘V-Charge’, the technology is said to be easily adaptable for existing carparks and could serve as the valet parking system of the future.
V-Charge was born out of a research project for the European Union, consisting of six partners working together to develop self-driven parking technology.
While autonomous vehicles are well on their way to becoming market-ready (depending on who you ask), wireless charging technology is yet to be offered as the primary source of battery energy renewal by any of the world’s leading EV-makers.
