Abstract

A device for charging a battery system of a vehicle is provided. The battery system is configured to be charged by a charging unit, the charging unit is arranged in the vehicle, and the charging unit has an input and an output. The output is configured to be connected in an electrically conductive manner to the battery system in order to charge the battery system, a connection point for a releasable electrically conductive connection for transmitting an AC voltage for charging the battery system is arranged in the vehicle, and a receiver coil is arranged in the vehicle. In the receiver coil a voltage for charging the battery system is configured to be induced, and the input of the charging unit is configured to be connected in an electrically conductive manner to the connection point and/or to the receiver coil in order to charge the battery system.
