Charging times Kia EV6 inconsistent

I have noticed that the charging times of my Kia EV6 LR (2022 model) are inconsistent. I am seeing that in this example sometimes charging 10-80% takes only 19mins, and sometimes 30mins. This while chargers are 350 or 400 kW but my Kia does max 240kW, so there should be no limitation on charger side.

See example and attached screenshot:

Is there an explanation for this? In ny latest long trip, every time charging at Ionity just gave me max charge speeds on the charge curve.

Thanks!

Roel

    Hello @ABRP User #1720677,

    We have made changes to the Ionity chargers to show correct values now when charging. Please check this and let us know if they are correct or changes still need to be made.

      Hello Mahde,

      Thanks for the response. However, the charging times are still unrealistically high for some stations. See differenece in these 2 stations for (almost) same percentage. Based on experience, the Flachau station is the realistic one.

      I hope it will be solved still? Since planning a proper route with the Kia EV6 at the moment is not doable

        Hello @ABRP User #1720677,

        Sorry for the delay. There seemed to be other issues that we saw with these chargers. We have made changes yet again to resolve it and we will be checking them again on Monday since the changes take at least 24 hours to update.
