A charge air cooler includes a first, second, and third heat exchange sections. In the first heat exchange section, heat is transferred from a first flow of liquid coolant to a refrigerant in order to cool the first flow of liquid coolant from a first temperature to a second temperature. In the second heat exchange section, heat is transferred from a flow of charge air to a second flow of liquid coolant in order to cool the flow of charge air from a third temperature to a fourth temperature. In the third heat exchange section, heat is transferred from the flow of charge air to the first flow of liquid coolant in order to cool the flow of charge air from the fourth temperature to a fifth temperature, the fifth temperature being less than the first temperature.
