The wireless charging for the Mercedes-Benz A200L is optional. Where is the wireless charging located in the Mercedes-Benz A200L: The wireless charging position in the Mercedes-Benz A200L is mostly on the right side of the driver's seat. Open the cover on the right side of the driver's seat and place the phone inside, but the prerequisite is that the phone must support the wireless charging function. Principle of electromagnetic induction in wireless chargers: It utilizes electromagnetic induction, where corresponding coils at the sending and receiving ends are used to send and receive induced current for charging. The principle involves using a magnetic field, similar to a transformer, with a coil at the transmitter and a coil at the receiver. Capacitors are connected in parallel with the coils to ensure both coils resonate at the same frequency. The sending end includes an oscillator, an amplification circuit, and a final-stage switch circuit. High-frequency pulse electricity is applied to the transmitting coil, and when the receiving coil is close, it induces a current, which is then sent to the battery through a rectifier and filter circuit for charging.
I found that the wireless charging feature in the Mercedes-Benz A200L is not standard equipment; it's offered as an optional extra. The base model doesn't include this configuration, so you'll need to select it as an additional option when purchasing, such as adding it to a Comfort Package or Technology Package. The optional cost typically ranges in the thousands of yuan, depending on the dealership and model year. The wireless charging pad is located in the center console area, making it convenient to place your phone for charging and eliminating the hassle of cables—ideal for commuters or tech enthusiasts. If your phone supports the Qi standard, this feature is quite practical. However, note that Mercedes-Benz often makes such convenience features optional to enhance personalization choices, without affecting the car's basic performance. Overall, it's a worthwhile add-on that improves daily convenience, though the car can still charge via USB ports without it.
