Charging speed

Trying out the app for my 2024 Kona. This can charge at 100kW. I tried plotting a long route that I'm thinking of doing soon. It came up with a plan that had me stopped at a 160kW charger for 38 minutes. The details of this stop indicated that I would be charging at the full 160kW, when my car can't do that. I'd assumed your program would be able to pull in and use the maximum charge speed of my car. Is that not the case? Is it just set incorrectly for the Kona?

    Hi @g.roberts0,

    Could you provide a link to a plan where this occurs?

        Thank you.

        Looking at this plan we plan for you to charge 39.1 kWh during 40 minutes (5 mins are counted toward parking and plugging in) at this Instavolt charger;

        Between 15% → 78% that would mean an avg speed of 58.65 kW

        Where do you see the faster speed?

          I didn't do the math on it admittedly. I went by what it showed in the stop details here

            That’s just a placeholder, not the value we calculate the speed for your car with.
