I'd love some input from the hive mind as to whether this is normal:
My Raven Performance X (delivered Dec 2020 in Germany) doesn't charge as fast as my previous X (also a Performance X in Germany). I usually roll in to a supercharger with 5-10% SOC, and observe:
This happens 100% of the time. I NEVER manage to stay at or close to 140 kW past 30%. I'm starting to wonder if there's something wrong with my new X, because:
Any thoughts? What can I tell the service center? Are they likely to be willing to investigate if I complain that charging drops to 92 kW at 30%?
So many thanks for any advice!
My Raven Performance X (delivered Dec 2020 in Germany) doesn't charge as fast as my previous X (also a Performance X in Germany). I usually roll in to a supercharger with 5-10% SOC, and observe:
- Pretty fast ramp-up to 140 kW (v3 SuC) or 146 kW (v2 SuC).
- By around 30 kW, this ramps down to 92 kW.
- Flat at 92 kW until about 65-70%, at which point it starts ramping down (as you'd expect) through 100%.
- I recall my previous X (also a Raven in Germany) charging at 140 kW until closer to 50-55% SOC.
- This post seems to confirm that dropping to 92% after 30% isn't expected.
- Also, if I unplug and restart charging after the rate dropped to 92 kW, it immediately pops back up to 110-115 kW, but then quickly ramps back down to 92 kW. This almost looks as if there's a thermal problem (as if unplugging and temporarily stopping charging allows something to cool off, which then quickly overheats again).
Any thoughts? What can I tell the service center? Are they likely to be willing to investigate if I complain that charging drops to 92 kW at 30%?
So many thanks for any advice!
