Features:

Simple drop-in installation — lift the sub-trunk cover, set the fridge in, plug it in. No drilling, no brackets, no trimming. The fit is deliberately snug, so it may take a gentle wiggle to seat the first time.
Real compressor cooling — only 30 minutes to cool from 50°F to -4°F, and it holds temperature whatever the weather outside. Frost-free, with ECO and MAX modes.
Control it from your phone with the free CFridge app over Bluetooth (App Store / Google Play), so you can check and set the temperature from the driver's seat without getting out. An LED panel on the unit is there whenever you want it.

Two foam support blocks — do not throw them away

The Model X sub-trunk floor is not flat. The two included foam blocks go under the fridge to level it, so it sits square and does not rock on the drive.
They look like packaging. They are not. Keep them — without them the fridge sits crooked.
Push the fridge to the left so the heat-exchange vent on the right side stays clear.

Please Note:

To keep the refrigerator powered after leaving and locking the vehicle, go to Controls > Charging and enable Keep Accessory Power On.
This feature is unavailable when the vehicle is in Low Power Mode and will increase energy consumption.

Using the CFridge app

Open the app and tap Connect each time you want to control the fridge. The app connects fresh every session rather than staying paired in the background — this is normal, not a fault.
If you own more than one CARFROZEN fridge, select the unit you want from the list before changing the temperature.

Troubleshooting

F2 error (flashing display and beeping): press SET and change the setting from H to L, turn the fridge off, unplug the power cable completely, then plug it back in and switch it on. Repeated resets on their own will not clear the code.
Stopped cooling on a trip: check the 12V plug first — make sure it is seated firmly in the outlet and that the fuse inside the plug is intact. A loose plug is the most common cause of a fridge that shows a temperature but is not running.

FAQ

How do I keep Fridge X running while parked?

To keep Fridge X running while your Tesla Model X is parked, enable “Keep Accessory Power On” under Controls > Charging. This allows the vehicle to continue supplying accessory power when no one is in the vehicle. Please note that this feature increases vehicle energy consumption and is unavailable when Model X enters Low Power Mode.

How does Fridge X connect to power in Tesla Model X?

Fridge X connects to your Tesla Model X using the included DC power cable. Connect it to a compatible low-voltage power outlet, set your desired temperature, and start cooling. No vehicle modification is required.

Can Fridge X be used in other vehicles?

Fridge X can operate from a compatible 12V or 24V DC power source. However, its shape and dimensions are specifically designed around the Tesla Model X rear sub-trunk.

Why can’t I adjust the temperature on Fridge X?

Make sure Fridge X is powered on and receiving stable power. Check the operating mode on the control panel and confirm that the controls are not locked. If you are using the mobile app, make sure it is connected to Fridge X before adjusting the temperature.

Why can’t the mobile app find Fridge X?

1. Check Bluetooth and Location Settings:

Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile phone.
Make sure that location services (GPS) are turned on as well.

2. Reinstall the App:

If the issue persists, try uninstalling the app from your mobile phone.
Download and reinstall the app from the app store.

Can Fridge X be powered by other power sources?

Yes. Fridge X operates on DC 12V/24V and can also be used with compatible portable power stations. With a suitable AC adapter, it can be powered from a standard household outlet.

Does Fridge X use a compressor or thermoelectric cooling?

Fridge X uses a compressor refrigeration system, providing fast and efficient cooling and allowing it to operate as either a refrigerator or freezer.

Can Fridge X run overnight, and how much power does it use?

Yes. Fridge X can run continuously as long as it has a stable power supply. Actual power consumption varies depending on the set temperature, ambient temperature, how much food or drink is inside, and how often the compressor cycles.

If I lock the car, will Fridge X drain 12V battery quickly

As for the situation, you can set 12v battery voltage protection level on the panel of our product. There are three levels for your choice: H-M-L.

What could be causing my refrigerator to not cool properly, and how can I fix it?

Refrigeration issues can be categorized into three types: slow refrigeration, failure to refrigerate, and incorrect temperature display. Here’s how to diagnose and address each issue:

Slow Refrigeration:

Possible Causes:

High ambient temperature or overcrowding inside the refrigerator.

Solution:

Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the refrigerator.
Place the refrigerator in a cooler environment if possible.
Reduce the amount of food stored inside and allow space for better air circulation.

Failure to Refrigerate:

Possible Causes:

Insufficient refrigerant or compressor malfunction.

Solution:

Check if the refrigerator compressor is operational.
Set the refrigerator temperature to -4°F (-20°C) and place a cup of water inside.
After twelve hours, check if the water is frozen.
If the compressor does not work, email our customer support: hello@carfrozen.com for further assistance. We will coordinate with the factory to resolve the issue promptly.

Incorrect Temperature Display:

Possible Causes:

High ambient temperature or incorrect temperature settings.

Solution:

Adjust the temperature compensation value as needed.
Contact our support team: hello@carfrozen.com to guide you through the adjustment process based on your feedback.
If the displayed temperature differs significantly from the actual temperature and the refrigerator freezes, consider replacing the refrigerator operation panel.

If the problem persists, it may indicate a faulty thermometer, and we will arrange to send you a replacement.

How to solve the F2 error in the refrigerator?

Make sure the refrigerator is in L position, otherwise F2 will be displayed.

How do I solve the F4 and F5 errors in the refrigerator?

The F4 and F5 errors indicate poor heat dissipation, typically occurring when the ambient temperature around the refrigerator exceeds 120°F (49°C). Here are steps to resolve these errors:

1.Increase Ventilation:

Improve the ventilation around the refrigerator.
Ensure there is adequate airflow to help dissipate heat effectively.

2.Optimal Placement:

If using the refrigerator in a car, avoid placing it in a confined space or groove.
Instead, place it directly in the trunk of the car to allow better airflow and heat dissipation.

Not a perfect fit, but there is a workaround

I bought this for my Model X 2024. The fridge does not perfectly fit the subtrunk of the 2024 Model X, and the instruction is outdated (probably written for earlier Model X).

However, I was able to make it work by putting the buffer at the bottom to level the fridge.

The depth and the height were good. I wish it was wider to make full use of Model X's subtrunk space. The subtrunk lid closes perfectly though.

Cooling works great. Reaches desired temprature even if it's hot.

One caveat is that new Tesla doesn't turn on the 12V outlet at the Sentry mode. Camp mode needs to be turned on to enable the 12V outlet. This is not a big deal since the cabin needs to be cool for the fridge to work properly --- I don't want to overheat the fridge. Again, the description/instruction is outdated.

TeslaFridge Model X

Fits perfectly in subtrunk and includes foam wedge inserts to support the fridge along the tapered Model X subtrunk. Cools to 0C from room temp in 30 minutes or less. Very quiet. Positive strong latch to keep lid closed. Gasketed edge. LCD panel easy to use. DC cord included and many aftermarket power supplies also work with this freezer. The LCD light inside is a nice touch. Have used it on grocery trips to Costco and in one instance, wasn't able to finish my ice cream cone so put it in the freezer. Was able to finish it 2 hours later and it did not melt!. Really happy with unit.

I purchased the Portable Fridge for my Tesla Model X Performance and it is definitely a must have!

I purchased the TeslaFridge Portable Fridge / Freezer for my Tesla Model X Performance and it is definitely a must have! As you can see by the attached photos, it fits inside the rear sub-trunk and can be left uncovered or the sub-trunk cover fits right over the top if you wish. This is so much better than the low priced thermoelectric coolers that I have used in the past. A thermoelectric cooler only cools to around 40 F degrees less than the surrounding temperature. The TeslaFridge is a real fridge / freezer with a cooling compressor, so it will get cold enough to keep things frozen if you set the temperature to do so. You can monitor and adjust the temperature through the smart app or on the fridge control panel. We use it on road trips to keep beverages and snacks cold. And it is great for grocery store trips by keeping things refrigerated so you don't have to rush back home to put things in the home fridge. The unit arrived packaged very well inside of two layers of thick cardboard outer boxes with foam packaging inside. Very well protected for shipment. The TeslaFridge company has been great at answering all of my questions though email. I highly recommend this company and their great customer service matched with an excellent product!

TeslaFridge Model X T-36

Ok, must have for traveling!
I first thought the TeslaFridge Model X T-36 was not cooling once I walked away, but the issue was the car going asleep even with Sentry Mode. I discovered every time I open the trunk, I heard the beep when the unit turns on, cold start. Also, the phone App will lose the Bluetooth connection. I finally figured out my 2023 Model X with Sentry Mode enable firmware 2024.3.15 did not enable the 15v trunk adapter. I enable camp mode, locked the door and walked away, check back in 15 minute it was running and reach my default 25F setting.

By the way, Dog Mode or Sentry Mode will not enable the 15V in the trunk just an Active car, door open, driving or Camp Mode. The TeslaFridge phone App is good at 10 to 15 feet away so you will know if the Fridge is on.

Unit works well, exhaust from the compressor heat is on the right where the vents are located and gets a little warm. I added spacers on the trunk lid, so it does not touch the TeslaFridge and leaves additional space for ventilation. Plus when we put luggage in the trunk it will not put any pressure on the Fridge. I added some pics of the quick installation. My wife has diabetic medicine that need to stay cool so this unit will serve two functions.
Incredible find,

Thanks ACOpower, keep it up.

Happy with our purchase

We bought this for our Model X because I spend a LOT of weekends travelling all over Southern California for our daughter's soccer team and I was constantly carting around freezer bags with ice packs to try to keep drinks and food cold. We've just come back from our first tournament weekend using the Acopower freezer and it worked brilliantly! Chills fast, kept everything icy cold and it used surprisingly little of the Tesla's battery.

I would actually give 4.5 stars if that was an option, docking half a point because:

1) Not a huge deal, but we were expecting a perfect fit in the subtrunk as though it were designed into the car. In reality, it does fit completely in that space but there is space on either side and it is clearly an "add-on". You can close the subtrunk lid to hide the freezer but if you leave it propped open (as opposed to lifting it out) the freezer lid won't stay open while you load/unload it.

2) A bit of a pain that the freezer is only bluetooth accessible from the app so you have to be in range of the freezer to check or adjust temperature

3) Set-up was a bit more cumbersome than expected... we had to go searching for answers for settings to get it to work, such as you have to put your Tesla into "camping" mode in order for the power to stay on to keep it chilling.

Top tip: At least in the 2016 Model X, the "cigarette lighter" port is placed in an annoying position for this freezer because the charger then blocks the subtrunk lid from being able to simply lift up or down while the freezer is plugged in... you have to either unplug it or awkwardly lift the lid out completely at an angle. We purchased a $15 Cigarette Lighter Splitter with a low-profile plug which allows the lid to pass up and down (and provides extra charging portals as a bonus)
