A cooling system includes an integrated cooling device, a refrigerant circuit and a cooling circuit. The integrated cooling device is configured to draw thermal energy from a component of a vehicle. The integrated cooling device includes a body and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is embedded in the body. The heat exchanger includes an extended refrigerant channel and at least one of an extended coolant channel and a coolant reservoir. The extended refrigerant channel and the at least one of the extended coolant channel and the coolant reservoir drawing thermal energy from the body. The extended refrigerant channel draws thermal energy from the at least one of the extended coolant channel and the coolant reservoir. The refrigerant circuit is fluidically coupled to and circulates a refrigerant through the extended refrigerant channel. The coolant circuit is fluidically coupled to and circulates a coolant through the extended coolant channel.
