Default 23.5 110 X - Wireless Charger Standard?

Howdy all,

I just ordered my 2023.5 110 X. Does anyone know if the wireless device charger is a true standard feature or if you're required to select the $925 Comfort and Convenience pack that includes the center console refrigerator to have wireless charging? I'd prefer to have the extra console space and save the couple hundred bucks if possible.

Thank you!

Matter of personal preference. I do find the refrigerator to be quite useful when I am biking, to come back to a nice frosty drink. Then again, this time year, may as well leave the drink on the bumper to cool it. The wireless charging also seems to be paired with a wireless booster. I am assuming the wireless install comes with the receiver to slightly boost the signal and relay it to an antenna in the rear trim someplace outside. Never did any quantitive testing on mine, simply because out here in the 'Kountry,' cell signal is either working or not. Little in between. I do charge my AirPods on the mat as well. Does not seem to work with the watch though. The other item used a lot, like every day, is the Homelink Garage Door Opening feature. It even has been used to open the airport gate, much to the dismay of the TSA guys.

It is perhaps better to get what you may want, rather than wishing you had ordered it at the git-go. It appears that retrofitting many items is a bit convoluted and kind of a time sink.

Not 100% sure of the situation with 23s, but my base model 110 (2022) does NOT have the comfort and convenience package and DOES have wireless charging pad and wireless CarPlay

I have a MY23 without the C&C package and I have wireless charging. It tends to really overheat my iPhone 13Pro so I dont use it much.

Thanks so much for this, this is exactly what I was wondering. Just had the package removed from my build. Thanks!

Thank you as well, confirmation on a '23 makes me feel confident then. Thanks!

I've got MY23.5 S, and haven't got convenience pack, but have wireless charging. My dealer was telling me wireless charging has been standard since MY23

FWIW, I took delivery of my D110X and elected not to get the fridge. I thought that w/o the fridge, the compartment space would be larger. My wife has always loved the fridge in the RR and current Sport. I never thought much of it because it looked so small…too small to actually hold anything I’d normally put into a center console.

Anyway, I quickly found that even without the fridge, it’s basically the same size, ie not very useful IMO. If I had to do it over again, I’d get the fridge because you can turn it off if you don’t want to use it to cool drinks but at the same you can always turn it on if you want/need to.

Even without the fridge, the ClearSight, Homelink, and wireless charging came with it.

You’re buying an X. At that price level, you’re supposed to get every option that you can possibly get, including the fridge and wireless charger, both of which I have found incredibly useful.

My X was pretty much loaded I think the only things my V8 has that my X didn’t was heated and solar wind screen, headlight washer, heated fuzzy steering wheel and a higher level of leather. Oh and paddle shifters and roar.

I like the console fridge, use it weekly. I use it way more than the wireless charger but I have an iPhone charging case so I make it through the day even under heavy use.
