A vehicle includes an inductive charge coupling arrangement that can be electrically connected with a traction battery. The arrangement includes a charge coil and a plurality of permeable panels surrounding the charge coil. The vehicle further includes at least one controller that, in response to an inductive charge request, causes the panels to move to positions selected to minimize electromagnetic field leakage between the charge coil and a charge station.
