Supercharging routing in the navigation

Hello,

Is the charge limit factored into the route planner? Like for example if I set it to like 65% so I can have quicker charging sessions instead of longer ones. Kinda like how you can set it in ABRP? I’m new to Tesla, just got a 2021 last week. Any y other trips regarding route planning are appreciated

Thanks

I just returned from a trip from Colorado to the LA area. I use ABRP to plan my trips.
In ABRP's Settings there's a setting for Charging stops that ranges from: Few but long - Quickest arrival - Short but many. It will plan your route accordingly. There's also a setting under Battery for Charger arrival SoC which determines how long much charge you want left, as a buffer, when you arrive at your next stop.

I have the Charging stops set for Quickest arrival and the arrival SoC set to 20%.

My experience is that ABRP tends to be pessimistic in its calculations, where Tesla's on board estimates are optimistic. When I'm charging I plug in my next destination in Tesla's route planner. If I have my charging limit set to 90%, per ABRP, the charging system usually says I have enough energy to get me to the destination when the charge is about 70 - 75%, with 15% left at arrival. When I'm charged to 90% it says I'll have about 45% left. However when I start driving it recalculates after a while and now is down to 20 - 23% at arrival, which is actually accurate.

On the other hand ABRP sometimes is overly cautious, so I look at both and judge from experience, but I set my charge closer to ABRP's reccomendation.

I don’t think the Tesla navigation routing factors in the charge limit.
