Does your iPhone overheat in the charger?

My iPhone overheats whenever I have it charging for more than about 20 minutes. It also does it in my wife's 640i, so it's not just an X5 issue. I have an iPhone 5SE, which doesn't support wireless charging, but I've added an aftermarket charger adapter that allows it to charge wirelessly. As I said, I can only do it in the vehicle for up to 20 minutes. At home, it charges wirelessly on the the charging pad without any problem. I'm curious if upgrading to a newer iPhone would resolve this issue? I don't mind spending the money if it would, but I'm happy enough with my phone that I don't want to upgrade if doing so would make no difference.

So I'm interested in your experiences (iPhone only):

1. Does your iPhone overheat in the car?
2. Which model iPhone do you have?

Thanks.
