Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for controlling a temperature of a vehicle power input port that is configured to receive power for a traction battery. In one example, a liquid cooled cold plate is configured to extract heat from the vehicle power input port so that there may be a reduced possibility of limiting electric power flow to the vehicle during charging of a traction battery.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an electrical architecture of an electrified vehicle. In one example, the electrified vehicle may have at least one electric transaxle with a power distribution device and a battery supplying power to the power distribution device. The electrified vehicle may further include an electrical interfacing device electrically coupled to the power distribution device and positioned proximate to the at least one electric transaxle, the electrical interfacing device configured to deliver power to electrical consumers external to the electrified vehicle.
