This is for SR LFP cars only.
I was wondering is SR owners can share their charging speed here in one forum for us to get a feel for what we can expect AND the charging curve. This will help us live better with our cars specially if we are on a trip.
Please just put in your experiences.
Just to get things going , I remember the literature use to say 117 KW max.
MG MG4 Electric 51 kWh now has 90KW max (has this changed or am I remembering wrong)
So I am going to assume 90kw is max
After a 120 miles drive with outside temperature below 10C, I recently charged from 20% using a Tesla super charger at around 67kw up to 60% after that it slowed down to eventually being around 37kw approaching 80%.
On the return trip with around 50% charge using an IONITY charger it was charging 44kw.
So, it looks like in cold weather with no pre-heating but with a warm drive we can expect around 70KW from low charge and as it passes 60% the charge slows down to around 35kw.
Now software is also important so I will update this with my software version (battery management version) when I workout where it is.
just an add on MG site says using a 150kw charger 10-80% take 39 mins. If my maths is correct on average it is changing at 54kw which is around what I experienced.
