Industry first: Kenworth class-6 electric trucks get OEM-approved wireless charging (electrek.co)

After 6 months of intensive engineering work and evaluations, a pioneering collaboration between Kenworth, Dana Incorporated, and WAVE Charging has resulted in the first OEM-approved high-power wireless charging integration of its kind.

In an industry first, WAVE charging has successfully integrated its high-power wireless charging technology into the Kenworth K270E and K370E model Class 6 electric trucks, marking the first OEM-approved high-power wireless charging integration of its kind.

That phrase, “OEM-approved,” is critical here, because while non-approved wireless charging add-ons risk voiding manufacturer warranties, WAVE Charging’s integration is fully approved by both the OEM (Paccar Kenworth) and their systems provider, Dana, ensuring that fleet customers who want to experiment with WAVE’s charging solution can explore the benefits of wireless EV charging without compromising the warranties on their expensive trucks.
