Musk often releases teasers for technology that hasnt even been worked on yet.
Theres also the question of efficiency with wireless charging, since induction can be much less efficient.
The Cybercab itself still faces a number of hurdles before it can become a reality.

And we dont even know the details for specs yet.
Like all things Musk, we need to take this video with a big grain of salt.
It looks cool, but its little more than a concept video at this point.
