Dan, 11 Mar 2022They won't.And thats could be a problem.
In case of phones a charger which wirelessly works with more than one device has been already invented and is for sale.

Iman, 12 Mar 2022I believe the wireless charging pads will be like a parking slot. Only one car can park at eac... moreWell hmmm maybe.
And maybe not.
Xiaomi unveiled half year ago a wireless charger with laughable 5V/1A speeds but works at the distance of 25 metres and up to 200 devices can connect at the same time.
So having wireless charger for just one car makes no sense if wired option is 2-5 times faster unless the woreless option ca work for more than just one vehicle.

CptPower, 05 Mar 2022Looks promising but how it will works if more than one car will connect to same charger at sam... moreI believe the wireless charging pads will be like a parking slot. Only one car can park at each slot at any given time, hence two or more cars can't connect to the same wireless charger at the same time.
