When my Golf eHybrid is out of electricity and therefore running on petrol, the next time I smart charge I never get more than an 80% added (11kWh) according to my ev.energy app. Why is this? I would expect 100% to be added from empty.
I have contacted ev.energy who supply the app which indicates 80% added, and they have checked things at their end see no limits. Their response was: "It is quite common for many EVs to only charge to 80% as default to protect the battery lifespan. I would check the app for the target charge level and then the vehicle for any settings regarding battery life".
Any ideas here?
Thanks,
Vic
