Charging speed/time

Hi,

Can you recommend a good source to get the charging curve (SoC versus time, or power delivered versus time) for the 2022 Mini Coope SE?

Thanks!!!
 
Thanks for the info!!!

Even so, I was more looking into DC charging side of the equation, as a prediction of charging times on a road trip.
 
That’s exactly what the graph is showing. In an ideal world, you would DC charge when the battery is at 40% and you would stop charging at 80%. However, the areas of the US where CCS chargers are that close together are likely still rare. Someday!

I charge using CCS quite regularly and noticed that it doesn’t seem to slow the charge rate until >85%. That being said, I’ve not watched the charge rate meter on the CCS charger as it goes.
 
I plugged in to a DC fast charger in 72degF weather iirc after driving 115 miles.
I don't have a chart drawn and just spot checked the percentage every now and then by screen shoting the EA app but hopeful this is some help:

At 15% it started at 42kW (starting time)
At 19% it was at 42kW (~4 mins in)
At 29% it was at 44kW (~6 mins in)
at 34% it was at 44kW (~7.5 mins in)
At 38% it was at 44kW (~10 mins in)
At 43% it was at 44kW (~11.5 mins in)
At 48% it was was at 45kW (~14 mins in)
At 76% it was at 49kW (~25.5 mins in)
At 81% it was at 37kW (~27.5 mins in)
At 96% it was at 10kW (~44 mins in)

I would estimate that 10% to 80% is 30-32 minutes
And 80% to 100% is probably another 20-23 minutes.

I did not activate comfort cooling for the cabin until I was at that 81% mark as I didn't want to reduce the charging power to the battery.

The charge curve shown in the InsideEV's article shows slower rates of charge below about 30% than what I saw which suggests to me their battery was colder than mine.

I charge only in my garage on L2 bc I’m driving only 3000 miles a year but what you show is really excellent how DC charging works
