Tesla's "We, Robot" event saw Elon Musk teasing the wireless charging speed of the upcoming Cybercab. Without disclosing specifics, the brief reveal has sparked widespread curiosity and discussions among electric vehicle enthusiasts.
Musk Teases Cybercab's Wireless Charging at "We, Robot"
During the “We, Robot” event, CEO Elon Musk underlined that the Cybercab will not be equipped with a NACS port. On the contrary, it would have an inductive charging mechanism.
Videos from attendees of the Robotaxi announcement event now suggest that Tesla actually teased certain facts about the Cybercab’s wireless charger.
Tesla Abruptly Cuts Livestream During Charging Reveal
The webcast of "We, Robot" by Tesla abruptly broke away from Musk's discussion about the Cybercab's wireless charging capabilities during his time on stage.
As could be seen in a video shared on social media platform X by Robert Rosenfeld, the screen behind Musk at the time actually featured a simulation of the Cybercab’s display while it was wirelessly charging. Teslarati also hinted at the architecture of Cybercab's wireless charger.
19 kW Wireless Charging Speed Surprises Enthusiasts
A video posted by Robert Rosenfeld on the social media platform X shows that while the Cybercab was wirelessly charging, the screen behind Musk at the moment displayed a replica of its screen. The Cybercab's wireless charger was also hinted at in the design.
Such a speed was somewhat shocking to several EV aficionados. Although 19 kW is far slower than the speeds provided by Superchargers, it is far quicker than the 11.5 kW that Tesla's Wall Connector is capable of.
Cybercab's Battery Capacity Remains a Mystery
To put things in perspective, the official website of Tesla claims that their 11.5 kW Wall Connector can charge up to 44 miles of range every hour.
While Tesla remained mum on the exact dimensions of the Cybercab's battery pack, rumor has it that the Robotaxi will use a compact unit to keep costs down.
Speculations Rise Over 4680 LFP Battery Cells
Quite intriguingly, Tesla has released a video depicting a Cybercab rendering with what appeared to be a battery pack made up of 4,680 cells. According to X user The Limiting Factor, who keeps tabs on the electric vehicle battery market, the Cybercab might have LFP 4680 batteries.
