I’m about to start using fast chargers for my i5 and kinda curious about what kind of charging speed I should be looking at. What’s been your experience? Drop your thoughts and tips below! Thanks!
 
Been looking into this charging speed thing, and it seems like it's influenced by a few factors.

The lower your battery is, the faster it'll charge initially. And temperature plays a role too. BMW's charging curve is a bit slower to protect the battery, but other cars might charge faster.

I'm curious to see if that'll cause any problems down the line.
 
As I know, the i5 can get 205 kW. But I haven't seen or heard about it at a 350kW charger. Anyway, it seems it always takes like half an hour to get to around 80%.
