BYD seal never reaches 150kw charge speed
-
I'm on a road trip between England and Paris. I've used a 200kw Fastned public charger and a Total energies 400kw charger so far.

The Fastned charger peaked at 125kw before reducing right down to 75kw when the battery reached about 75%.
I'm currently at the Total energies 400kw one and the battery is at 50% and it's charging at 115kw.
Why am I not reaching peak charging speed? Is there a setting I need to change in the car menu?

Just driven for 2 hours, down to 40% battery. No charging above 30kw

just search for byd seal charging speed curve and you'll see that it's normal ... some stations say 150 or 200 KW but never deliver that speed . Ionity is the best from what I've seen I get 150 kw regularly there

400kw doesnt mean shit.
I've been driving my Sealion 7 with potentially 230kw loading peak for about 6 month now and most of the time 300/400kw doesnt give you >200kw.
I mainly use EnBw in Germany its pretty random when i will reach the 230kw that my Car could potentially load.
Also 400kw doesnt mean shit, if the charger can only provide 400 Volt instead of 800 Volt, e.g. Tesla Supercharger appart from the latest generation all have 400 Volt -
I've seen 151 KW on mine at Ionity,
