"AreoVironment tells us that different EVs accept DC quick charges in different ways.
As EV batteries get closer to be being fully charges, the rate of charging slows down. When folks talk about DC quick chargers being capable of re-charging a Nissan leaf in 20-30 minutes it is reference to delivering an 80% charge. Topping of the last 20% takes somewhat longer.
AV tells us that when a Nissan Leaf has less than about 50% of a charge the DC quick charger will take the car to about 80% in a session and then shut off. If the car has more than about 50%, then a session will take it all the way to a full charge."
Is this true?
