## Honda's Wireless Charging Road System
Honda, Taisei Corporation, and Taisei Rotec built a system that wirelessly charges electric vehicles while driving.
## First Public Trials Target Commercial Trucks
Logistics and commercial trucks will be first in line for public-road trials in Japan's 2027 fiscal year starting April 1, 2027.
## System Uses Embedded Coils in Pavement
The setup embeds transmitter coils in the pavement to create a magnetic field that a vehicle receiver turns into electricity.
## Durability Test for Heavy Trucks
A test track will simulate 1 million wheel-load cycles at 11,000 pounds per wheel for heavy trucks.
## Tateyama Expressway Trial Begins in 2027
Honda plans to join the Tateyama Project on 300 meters of the E14 Tateyama Expressway near Kimitsu rest area in Chiba starting fiscal 2027.
## Key takeaway

Honda and partners will trial wireless EV charging roads on Japanese highways starting in 2027 after proving durability for commercial trucks.
