I had a very convivial conversation recently with a gentleman charging his well-loved Nissan Leaf at Ionity, drawing predictably low speeds. When he saw how quickly my car was wolfing down a charge, he asked me how he could get his car to do it. He was genuinely unaware of the limitations of the onboard equipment of his car. I gently pointed at the 50kw Gridserve chargers at the other side of the car park and suggested that he’d be as well to use those as he’d achieve no higher speed and would be slightly financially better off to boot. Perfectly amiable chat and no hectoring on my part as he’d approached me and asked but it was enlightening to me how much education still needs to be done around the whole charging infrastructure wrt what one‘s own vehicle is capable of receiving.
