"With its proprietary on-route wireless solution now deployed throughout North America and Europe" Yes, as expected and described above. They are charging wirelessly at bus stops --- aka "on-route". This allows them to use smaller batteries with less weight for better *overall* efficiency. This is obviously not applicable to CyberTruck and does not speak to the efficiency of the wireless charging process itself.
