One example provides a hands free electric vehicle (EV) charging system including a charge transfer unit (CTU) to receive at least one charging power input, the CTU including a receptacle and a controllable power switch. A vehicle charging unit (VTU) is to be mounted to an underside of the EV, the VTU including a vertically controllable power cord having a plug, the power cord to electrically connect to a battery charging system of the EV, and an alignment system to adjust a horizontal position of the plug. When the VTU is positioned vertically over the CTU, the VTU is to horizontally align the plug with the receptacle and thereafter to vertically lower the power cord to place the plug in the receptacle and create an electrical connection there between, whereupon the CTU is to connect the power cord to the charging power source via the power switch.
