Dealer-installed option possible

WiTricity's FastTrack Integration Program extends to helping OEMs develop dealer-installable wireless charging options that meet market demand while production programs are in development. This program delivers test- and evaluation-ready wireless charging with a complete and elegant implementation of both hardware and software. WiTricity's solutions adhere to the global automotive standard for wireless charging ratified by the Society of Automotive Engineers in 2020.

In an independent survey conducted by Tidewatch Partners in June 2023, consumers with loyalty to premium automotive brands indicated that 80% of them would switch to another premium automotive brand if that brand were to offer wireless charging.

"We've done extensive research with EV consumers and with fleets looking to move to electric vehicles," said Gruzen. "We know that consumers prefer EVs with wireless charging, and we know that it solves a host of challenges for fleets as well."
