# Urban Air-Cleaning Device Chargers The Toyota 'e-Chargeair' Has a Multifunctional Design By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2019-10-31 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toyota-echargeair References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/toyota-e-chargeair-charging-station-for-moblie-devices-and-bevs/) The conceptual [Toyota](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecollection) 'e-Chargeair' has been shown off by the brand as part of the Mobility Theme Park vision at the 46th Tokyo Motor Show 2019 as a way to keep devices charged and much more. The unit is outfitted with a [wireless battery charging system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spot-on-wireless-charger) that can relay electricity to Qi-enabled devices, which will eliminate the need for users to carry around their own chargers or power banks. The system can also provide WiFi as well as air cleaning capabilities thanks to [air purification functionality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-purifier-concept) that rounds it off as a robust rendering of an efficient solution for future urban environments. The conceptual Toyota 'e-Chargeair' can also be used for charging battery electric vehicles (BEVs) to keep them functioning for extended periods with minimal downtime. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 87% | Activity: 85% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Wireless Battery Charging:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop wireless charging technology for various devices, eliminating the need for separate chargers or power banks. - **Air Purification Functionality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate air cleaning capabilities into various devices or systems, providing cleaner and healthier urban environments. - **Charging Infrastructure for Bevs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create efficient charging solutions for battery electric vehicles, reducing downtime and enabling extended use. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design wireless charging systems for smartphones, tablets, wearables, and other portable devices. - **Urban Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop air purification systems for buildings, public spaces, and vehicles to improve urban air quality. - **Electric Vehicle Charging:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Build a robust charging infrastructure for battery electric vehicles, including public charging stations and smart grid integration. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Air-Purifying Charging Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qivation-tio2.md) - [Vehicle-Matching Charger Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clair-electric-vehicle-charger.md) - [Futuristic Imaginative Design Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecollection.md) - [Environmental EV Air Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-urban-purifier.md) - [Sanitizing Smartphone Charger Docks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charger-concept.md) - [Parking Spot Vehicle Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watt-ev-charger.md) - [Unwinding Multifunctional Charging Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/better-energy-charge.md) - [Sleekly Designed EV Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genesis-ev-home-charger.md) - [Scalable EV Charging Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epit-ultra-fast-charging-station.md)
