They'll need a new charger plug, one that can be automatically removed and retracted.

Doesn't Tesla already have a feature where the car will pull out of its parking spot and come to you when you click a button on your phone? That would solve the "hey, were did my car go?!?" problem with this scheme.

They have a prototype of a robotic charger, aka the snake charger.

That's hilariously overdesigned and underenginnered. I doubt it will ever see mass production.
