Recently I was sitting late at night at the Nissan dealer charging my 2023 SV plus on their level 3 charger. I needed the charge to return home almost 100 miles away. It took more than an 1.5 hrs to reach a comfortable level of charge on the battery before I left for home.
The Temperature was 5 degrees F outside, so my dilemma was: Would running the heater make me sit and wait even longer to recharge the battery, or would the Level 3 charger and/or the car manage the electrical charging and keep charging the batteries at an optimal rate and take roughly the same time to reach the same level of charge? I wanted to get home soon, so i sat in a very cold car.
