I have a question regarding the scheduled charging feature in EX30. When setting a charging schedule through the app or directly in the car, does the car automatically adjust the charging power to ensure that charging is completed by the end of the scheduled period? Or does it charge at the maximum available power until it reaches the preset charge level, regardless of the remaining time in the schedule?

I have checked the user manual and this forum but could not find a clear answer. I would appreciate your input on this matter.

The car always charge at the maximum power available. In the charger settings you could adjust the power, but it is advisable to always charge at the maximum power available in your home charger since the loss during the charging time is almost linear in time, so the less time you are charging, the less electricity loss you will have.
