Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Get Upgraded Wireless Chargers with Active Cooling
Tesla will upgrade the wireless chargers in the Model 3 and Model Y with an actively cooled design using fans, first introduced in the Model Y L in China. This upgrade reduces overheating and increases charging power from 15W to up to 50W for phones supporting non-Qi2 fast wireless charging. The new component is compatible with most Model 3 and Model Y vehicles, simplifying production. However, the Cybertruck will require a specific design due to its different center console layout. The update does not include the Qi2 standard, which would improve alignment and charging speed.
- Wireless charging power increased from 15W to 50W in Model 3 and Model Y

🔎 Why it matters: The upgraded wireless charger with active cooling, introduced in the Model Y L, enhances charging experience in Model 3 and Model Y vehicles.
📈 Upside: Enables faster charging and prevents phone overheating during wireless charging.
