We know from the ID.3 manual for this VW MEB platform, that VW suggests regularly limiting charging sessions to 80% to extend battery life. What considerations should be made for fast charging?
Is the free (unlimited) EA fast charging a blessing or a curse, especially for those near a EA charge station? If EA users only charge to 80% is that as good as only charging to 80% on home AC charging? Are those who will mostly fast charge at EA, actually field testers for how the battery will hold up when fast charged exclusively, or often?
Possibly less of an issue for those who only plan to keep this ID.4 for a few years or less? But, what about those who might be planning to keep the ID.4 for 6 to 10 years?
