Tesla acquires a wireless charging company.
【Summary】Tesla has reportedly sold German wireless charging startup, Wiferion, to another German company, PULS. The move is seen as an "acqui-hire" move, in which Tesla hires the engineers and then sells off the assets.
Tesla has made a surprising move in the wireless charging industry. Earlier this year, the company hinted at the possibility of integrating wireless charging technology into its vehicles. This speculation grew when reports emerged of Tesla's acquisition of Wiferion, a German startup known for its expertise in inductive charging for industrial robots and electric vehicles.
However, recent news suggests that Tesla has now sold Wiferion to another German company called PULS. The reasons behind this decision are unclear, but some speculate that it may have been an "acqui-hire" move. In this scenario, Tesla hires the talented engineers from Wiferion and then sells off the company's assets.
This unexpected development raises questions about Tesla's future plans for wireless charging. While the company's interest in this technology is evident, the decision to sell off Wiferion indicates a shift in strategy. It remains to be seen how this move will impact Tesla's integration of wireless charging into its vehicles in the long run.
