I am pretty sure its the charging overhead from the cooling system that is accounting for the difference.
When I thought I was getting better charging performance it was diego not charging to 100% any more which I did daily for the first 6 weeks. I had my Leaf.
Since that time I am only timing the charge to get around 90% charge. That has increased my efficiency to around 77%. I take the difference to be caused by charging at max current without the trickle down that happens near the end of charging.
So basically the faster you charge the less overhead you have to deal with
