@Edent@mastodon.social one would expect the car to be able to position itself optimally, like parking assist. (I have never driven a car with parking assist mind, so no idea how effective it it!)
I am amused to imagine someone parking their car, getting out, and walking away whilst the car does a little wiggle to settle into its ideal resting spot. The car should then purr whilst charging.

@yvan@toot.ale.gd Parking assist is crazy good when it works. I could never parallel park - but my old BMW made it a breeze. But, yes, I do like the idea of a car acting like a Roomba and snuggling onto its charger :-)

@yvan@toot.ale.gd @Edent@mastodon.social this is a much better idea than mine, where there's a massive Magsafe connector in the floor and as long as you get within a few inches of it your car just gets snapped into place leaving you feeling like you just had an RTC with yourself
