Umm, you are mixing up the statistics, and its understandable since they are both in KWh.

the 91kwh capacity is the size of the tank. How fast you use it up is based on the 'gas pedal'. If you draw 5 Kwh (h is per hour) you will last 91/5 hours of driving (approx)

The 100kwh is the rate of charge you received. Ie how fast you can stuff electrons into the tank.
Depending how full the tank is, you can estimate the time to fill. If you were at 50% going to 100%, it would take a bit under1/2 hour. (46/100)

It not that your battery is spec'd at 91, and it means you cant take it at 100 or higher on a charge.
Nope. You're the one who's mixing things up. Charging rate is in kW, not kWh.

I documented and reported (app feedback) the FordPass ficticious tally for L2 charging.
It appears that after the target SOC is attained, and the EVSE stops providing additional charging, IF the L2 charger is still plugged into the charging port, the app's tallying continues to tally as if the car is charging. (at the rate it was charging when target SOC was reached)

Such a simple thing to confirm and then address. But must not be high enough on the task list to get any response.

I don’t trust the FordPass app. I trust my charger in my garage more. With that being said, there was a TSB about battery charging that my car needed. TSB 24-2141. Since getting that remedied, my car actually stops charging, the charger shows it’s not charging in the garage, and the car goes quiet. Might be something you need to investigate.
What charger do you have in your garage?

How is it possible a '24 GT with a 91 kWh battery capacity could charge 16% - 80% with energy added of 100 kWh? This is according to the FordPass app. Is it inaccurate or does the HV battery have a far higher capacity than stated?

I've been searching around., but my search Fu was weak with this. I think the community could answer quickly!
I just ran into this today myself. I’m doing a battery rebalance, so ran it down to 10% charge and am charging to 100% now. At the moment, I’m at 96%, and FordPass assures me that I’ve only put 54.8 kWh into it. My OBDLink thought my battery SOH was 90.5%, but if I believe the FordPass numbers it’s more like 70.8%. Going by my ChargePoint numbers, on the other hand, SOH is more like 96.9%, but then that’s got to be optimistic given that there are conversion inefficiencies and cooling costs.

I guess I’ll find out what the latest OBDLink number is in a little bit…

FordPass up until a few months ago was marginally acceptable. As with everything else Ford(software/tech.) no longer so.
It is quite simple: no one here wants anything that works for the average consumer.
That is why the average consumer is turned away from EVs.
Until manufacturers are rewarded for consumer friendly vehicles (eg. the Chevy Bolt) the struggle will continue.
This forum is owned by technophiles. They discount all who do not belong to their religion.
Most consumers have neither the time nor inclination for such nonsense, they simply want a vehicle they can operate dependably.
Yes, believe it - people do have to work (still).

It appears to be a bug in the app. The app continues to increment the power added as long as the car is plugged in, even if it is not charging. I remember leaving mine plugged in for a weekend and it said I charged 20% or so, but added over 200 KWh...

I have seen the FP app, combine 2 charging sessions together for the KWH total and for the total time charging.
i.e. you charge your car, unplug and then when you plug back in to charge again, it did not clear out the registers for the charge time and KWH delivered from the previous charge and just starts totalizing again with the previous data.

The 100kwh is the rate of charge you received.
<SNIP>
Rate of charge is expressed in KW. KWh is an expression of volume of charge. I guess you could express the rate as KWh/h or KWh per hour, but that all distills down to KW. ??
