Latest EV charging concept

Hyundai has unveiled an innovative electric vehicle (EV) charging and automated parking systems concept. 

A video, released by Hyundai, shows how the concept helps with overcrowding at both parking and charging locations as EV numbers start to grow. 

The technology relocates fully charged vehicles from charging stations and allow other awaiting EVs to charge. 

“Upon commanding the vehicle to charge using a smartphone, the vehicle will automatically cruise to a vacant wireless charging station.”

“When the vehicle is fully charged, it will relocate to another vacant parking space using the Automated Valet Parking System (AVPS), allowing other vehicles to charge at the spot.”

“When the driver calls for the vehicle, it will then autonomously return to the location of the driver.”

“The overall process is performed by continuous communication between electric vehicle, parking facility, charging system and driver.”

“The parking facility sends the location of empty parking spaces and charging stations, while the charging system updates the charging status of the vehicle in real-time.”
