Evatran Group, Inc. announced that its PLUGLESS wireless charging technology would soon be available on the Cadillac ELR.
Evatran, the first company in the world to make wireless charging available to individual EV drivers, currently has systems that are compatible with the Nissan LEAF and Chevrolet Volt.
The Cadillac ELR is the first model to be announced in what is intended to be three new premium model announcements by the end of 2014. Evatran will begin accepting advanced orders today for deliveries as soon as September 1st.
“The launch of the Cadillac ELR system is an important milestone for us,” commented Rebecca Hough, Evatran CEO and Co-Founder. “Our intention has always been to make convenient wireless charging available to all electric vehicle drivers. Until now, we’ve focused on perfecting the system for LEAF and Volt drivers. It’s now time to shift our focus to expansion to more EV owners across the country and across the world.”
The PLUGLESS L2 offers the ultimate in convenience and simplicity for today’s electric vehicle driver. Completely eliminating the plug-in process, the PLUGLESS system ensures the EV owner is getting the maximum electric range out of his electric vehicle by ensuring that every time he parks, he’s charging. The system charges as quickly as conventional corded systems and all vehicle features, such as charge-timers and phone applications, can be used seamlessly with the PLUGLESS system. The system also has the industry’s only safety certification from Electronic Testing Laboratories (ETL).
After two years of field trials with partners such as Google, Hertz, and Duke Energy, the PLUGLESS System was made available to individual Nissan LEAF and Chevrolet Volt owners in early 2014. Evatran has since completed installations from Montreal to Austin to Los Angeles and has on-boarded over 30 certified installation partners in the process.
