"Buried in a press release titled, “Even more colours and even greater
convenience for the Cayenne Electric” was news that Porsche, for the first
time, would be offering electrically wireless inductive charging on its
impressively powerful Cayenne Electric SUV.
With the launch of Porsche Wireless Charging in its latest Cayenne Electric
SUV, Porsche is introducing a particularly convenient form of EV charging that
makes living with its most powerful car EVER even simpler than before: instead
of connecting a cable, Cayenne drivers just have to park their portly P-car
over a strategically placed pad, and the charging process then begins
automatically.
The Porsche Wireless Charging system pairs a charging pad on the underside of
the Cayenne with a ground pad installed in the customer’s parking space.
Porsche calls the latter “weatherproof” for outdoor installation, and claims a
charging rate of up to 11 kW and with an efficiency of about 90% for easy
overnight charging.
Integrated safety mechanisms like motion sensors and cat foreign object
detection are baked in to avoid microwaving the cat ensure safe operation,
designed to stop the charging process automatically if, “a living creature
comes close to the vehicle or the ground pad or if a metallic object lies on
the latter and heats up.”
Porsche Wireless Charging is being rolled out globally in stages, and is
available to order now in Germany and other European markets."
