EV Charger Comparison: Wireless Vs Corded Charging
What’s it like having the power of hands-free wireless charging? Here’s a side-by-side view.
Coming Home
Plugless
Plugless recognizes your car as you approach. It lights up and guides you to align over the wireless charging pad.
Plug-in
Corded charging is one extra step when you’re finally home.
Charging
Plugless
Your Plugless-enabled EV can charge itself. It’s designed to be forgotten about and work anyway. One less thing on your list.
Plug-in
It’s easy to remember to plug in. It’s easy to forget, too. Forgetting even occasionally can cause unnecessary frustration.
Arriving at Work
Plugless
For power users, an optional second wireless charger for the office is the ultimate reserved parking space and charging valet.
Plug-in
Shared workplace charging doesn’t work for everyone.
Charge Scheduling
Your vehicle’s native software and apps still have full control over charge timing. You can set the schedule to take advantage of cheaper nighttime electricity rates the same way you always have. Plugless will make sure your EV is fully charged and ready to go when you are.
Charging Speeds
The 7.2 kW Plugless charger delivers the same charging speed as a 7.2 kW plug-in charger – about 20-25 miles of range per hour of charge time, depending on which EV is being charged.
On the Road
Plugless EVs can still use plug-in chargers as needed.

Enhancing your EV
Plugless
A True Upgrade
Each Plugless system includes an upgrade that allows a Plugless Certified Installer to enable your vehicle’s wireless charging capability.
Plug-in
Status Quo
Plugging in at home requires that you remember to manually manage your refueling process every day or even multiple times per day.
Electrical Requirements
Plugless’ electrical requirements are typical of any Level 2 Charger. You’ll need a dedicated 30-50 amp, 240 volt circuit. Plugless for Tesla connects to the exact same type of outlet as the Tesla mobile connector.
Plugless
- 180 Degree Charger Placement
The Plugless Control Panel can be placed anywhere in the driver’s line of sight during parking. Your EV receives a charge over the air from the Parking Pad. - Automated Elegance
Only Plugless can deliver charging that matches the superior design and simplicity of your EV. - All-Weather Convenience
Ice, snow, sleet, rain, heat – no problem. Simply park and go.
Plug-in
- Limited Charger Placement
Corded chargers provide limited placement options. The plugs must be dragged around other vehicles in order to begin or end charging. - Yet Another Dongle
The last thing you need is another charging process, dongle and cord mess to manage every day. - Weather Frustrations
Poor weather makes plugging in annoying at best and nearly impossible at worst.
The EV lifestyle upgrade is complete with wireless charging.
