Is there any input or code that allows us drivers to start the battery to preheat?
With current winter temperatures, fast charging is often very slow, 34-59kWh even with a SoC between 5-20%. Even prolonged highway driving for over an hour does not bring the battery above 8-10 degrees Celsius. This means that at the charger, the battery first needs to warm up to 35 degrees. This wil take up to 15mins, which all adds up to a very long 20-80 charging time.
Pre-heating the battery might cost some % of range, but you’ll make that up easily by achieving faster charging speeds.
My hope is that this remains some sort of hidden parameter which could be enabled by using the Obdeleven.
