The positive electrode becomes very reactive at near fully charged and this damages the electrolyte. As mentioned charging the last bit is a slow process. So Tesla limits the charging to extend battery life and to make charging to "100%" faster. On Wed, Jul 22, 2020, 5:23 PM Peter VanDerWal via EV wrote: > Are you sure about that?

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: $40k Nissan Ariya fwd .jp EV r:300mi
Not likely, doesn't make any sense considering they recommend not charging all the way and it's know this does the most damage. Their app lets you set to Charge percent so makes sense the software would limit the top voltage. At any rate Tesla doesn't let you use the whole battery anyway even at 100% charged it is not because they gave people temporary range increases during the Florida Hurricane. I believe some of the guys on the Tesla Forum know. The ones that monitor cell voltages.

If Tesla is limiting you to the top 220 miles, or the bottom 220 miles.

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: $40k Nissan Ariya fwd .jp EV r:300mi
It is interesting. I never thought about whether Tesla took the software limited part of the charge from the top or the bottom of the battery pack. I'm sure glad that I normally charge to only 85% and rarely take the battery pack below 30%.

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: $40k Nissan Ariya fwd .jp EV r:300mi
It's longer on the outside, but roughly the same on the inside (which is where it counts). Well actually, the Bolt has about 15% MORE cargo volume than the Ariya. The low end Model 3 has roughly the same range as the base model Ariya, despite having a battery pack that is 9kwh smaller(at least according the the specs released by nissan). Other than the looks (which I admit, I like the looks of the Ariya) it doesn't really seem to have anything to offer that isn't already available.
