WIll my leaf show charging rate? 2020 SV Plus

Newbie question:

Is there a screen setting inside of the car that will tell me at what rate the car is being charged?

Yes, it's the first screen, 2nd bullet down, the one that tells you how long it takes you to get to 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. If you DC charge, it'll tell you what the charging speed is.

On DC, yes. On AC; No. There is a screen that will show you bloated estimated times to charge "if" charging at various rates but actually showing you the rate of charge "to the battery" ? Only LEAF Spy will do that.

Thank you - I have only did one DC charge and it was 6.6, and I wasn't sure if that was accurate as I noticed you could select the different charge speeds and change the estimate values.

6.6 sounds like the AC setting?

I was connected to Charge Point terminal via a J1772 connector. I have yet to try a DC fast charger yet.

6.6 is not the DC charge rate, it's AC, and it's just used to estimate the time to charge. Once you connect to a DC charger, the 6.6 will change to a higher number than that.

My wife and I visited a local Electrify America charging station last night to try out the whole process. While there I as able to see how fast the car was charging compared to the other day when I was just connected to AC.

The car was at 25% and we were able to charge at 48KWh until we hit the 75% mark and then it throttle back to 37KWh. We left around the 77% state of charge as I wasn't waiting and did not need a 100% charge.

Thanks again for the help - Earl
