Have tried to charge on 150kw HPC charger and got a max charging speed of 78kw at peak and stayed around there for the duration of the just over 1 hour charge. Car had around 20% when first plugged in.

Then tried to charge on 50kw DC charger and got a max of 28kw and took us almost 2 hours to charge from around 18%.

Temperatures here are cool, around 0 degrees and realise this plays a part but getting frustrated at the low rates or charge (almost half the claimed amount related to the charger).
I am sure it has something to do with the car settings and would value anyones help to try and improve these speeds.

Many thanks for anyones help or input!
Yeah the car is terrible and coldgating on cold weather.
I had the other day only 22kwh at 10% with 3 Degrees C.
It took at least 15min until it picked up gradually upto 75kwh and then it kicked to 140 and 150. At least you need half hour extra charge.
