Vehicle average charge speed

The ability to enter (and store) the average charging kW of the vehicle. My car (Kona) has a max charge rate way below the chargers max rate and having to edit the max charger rate of the suggested charges enroute to my average charge rate is tedious. Therefore a setting enabling an average charging power to be entered (in my case 47kW ). This setting would enable more accurate charge stop times and therefore more accurate overall travel times

    This would be a fantastic idea, for example, my old 2014 Nissan Leaf will never achieve a 50kw charge. If battery is below about 40% it might start off around 30kw, but rapidly decrease to about 20kw by 50% and then slows right down to 12-15kw from then on in (particularly on instavolt chargers)

    Could there be the feature that the app logs and remembers rapid chargers you have used and the average charge rate for that unit?

    We individually model charge sessions on a per-vehicle basis. Each vehicle has its own charging curve model that adapts based on the charger's properties. In theory, this means you should get accurate time estimates without needing to adjust anything.

    If you're finding that our estimates are consistently off for your vehicle, that's really valuable feedback! We'd definitely want to revisit our modeling to make sure it's accurate. Are you seeing specific scenarios where the estimates don't match reality?
