Together with the automation specialist Kuka, the Volkswagen Group presented “CarLa�, the first mobile charging robot for automobiles, at the Group Media Night. Such fully automated service robots for use both in public spaces and at home will make a key contribution to boosting the acceptance of e-mobility. “CarLa� automatically begins charging the vehicle once it has been parked – preferably autonomously. With this joint project the two companies are demonstrating how charging can function fast, simply and autonomously. And “CarLa� has the potential to become the industry standard. Both companies plan to extend the research cooperation to the pilot production stage.
