Inductor cooling systems and methods are disclosed. A vehicle inductor cooling system may include an inductor assembly, a flange extending around a periphery of the inductor assembly, and a sealing wall having an outer periphery and a sealing surface forming a seal with the flange. A bottom surface may extend from the outer periphery and a cavity may be defined by the outer periphery, the bottom surface, and the inductor assembly. A coolant inlet may be configured to provide coolant to the cavity. The inductor assembly may include at least one conductive coil wrapped around a core. A bottom portion, optionally only the bottom portion, of the coil may be disposed within the cavity and configured to be directly contacted and cooled by the coolant (e.g., ATF).
