I know some people & reviewers have said that their 4 has struggled to hit the bigger numbers, what’s the max you’ve seen?

This is mine currently taken a few mins ago at Tesla Supercharger.

It was climbing but someone’s plugged in next to me and that halted that ?

A couple of months ago at a local MFG charger I got this. Started off at 19% and took 24 minutes to get to 80%. Highly impressed with that

My MG4 SE LR gets about 137/138kW on Gridserve, mfg and Instavolt when charging from 10-20%. A massive improvement on the 22kW max of our old Zoe.
 
If the charger is capable I've had 140kw a few times but most chargers I use locally max out on average around 60kw so they could do with an upgrade.
 
I had cause to use the local (open) Tesla superchargers on Friday.

Arrived at 18%, left at 80%.
Pulled 40kWh in 23mins for £18.80 (47p/kWh, as I was there before the 4-8pm peak).
Happily, Tesla only take a £20 "Pre-authorisation" fee.
Car didn't drop below 139-140kW until it was over 55% full, and was still pulling 60kW when I stopped the charge.

VERY happy with this, coming from a 2020 Zoe that maxed out at 46kW!
