Next step: wireless induction charging in parking spaces

Unless a revolution comes along in the field, it's too inefficient. Best condition inductive chargers can yield 90% efficiency, and that is not too bad. But that require perfect alignment, and no distance between the coils. Neither is realistic in a "park and charge without doing anything" scenario.
