A vehicle includes a system for charging a battery of the vehicle. The system includes an electric motor couplable to a charging station, a capacitor-clamped multi-level inverter, and a processor. The capacitor-clamped multi-level inverter is couples the electric motor to the battery and includes a first leg having a first set of switches and a first AC terminal coupled to the electric motor, a second leg having a second set of switches and a second AC terminal coupled to the electric motor and a third leg having a third set of switches and a third AC terminal coupled to the electric motor. The processor connects one of the third AC terminal and a neutral point of the electric motor to the charging station and control at least one of the first set of switches and the second set of switches to charge the battery through the electric motor.
