Spark Connected deploys its wireless phone charging technology in Vega’s 804hp electric supercar

Spark Connected, a global leader in developing advanced and innovative wireless power technology and system level solutions, announced a partnership with Vega Innovations on the electric vehicle, In-Cabin wireless charging solution.

Vega EVX, the all-electric supercar, has integrated Spark Connected's in-cabin wireless charging technology, based on the solution named The Beast, into its luxurious cockpit. Supporting all fast charge smartphones, the solution provides an integrated smart phone wireless charging feature, complementing the Vega's state-of-the-art interior and technology features.

According to Ruwanga Dassanayake, Chief Operating Officer at Spark Connected, “The very talented team of innovators at Vega has actualised an impressive feat in launching the stunning VEGA EVX. We are pleased to have partnered with the team in combining Spark's automotive in-cabin wireless charging technology into the Vega. Very proud of this exciting milestone for Sri Lanka on the world stage.”

Vega Innovations combined dual electric motors and a light carbon-fibre construction, allowing the Vega EVX to retain its remarkably light weight of 2,090kg even with a dense on-board lithium-ion battery pack. This is a result of innovative packaging, safety, battery management, system hardware, as well as firmware and software technologies.

According to Vega Innovations CEO Harsha Subasinghe, “The Vega EVX is South Asia's first all-electric supercar which uses innovative, modular and fully scalable systems that can be customised to optimise performance and drive-train technology. Our partnership with Ruwanga and his Spark Connected team has been great and has resulted in a high performance and EMI best-in-class wireless charging solution that further enhances the user experience in the Vega.”

The Beast-based in-cabin wireless charging solution is a high performance solution that meets stringent requirements for integration into the automotive cockpit. The solution has been certified CISPR-25 Class 4, an industry first, to meet strict automotive in-cabin emissions requirements for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
