First time poster here, and somewhat new to the eV game. I have a 2023 Premium AWD 90kwH battery. I’m at an EVGo currently and hook up at 11%. It gives me about 178kw at the start. About 3 minutes later a Kia ev6 backs in next to me and hooks up at 12%. And it gives the Kia 276kw at the start. I’m still here, it’s been 23 minutes and I’m currently at 87kw and 56%. The Kia is next to me at 79kw and 84%.
Is this normal for the Mach e to be so much slower than the Kia ev6? Thank you for any input and education.
Yes. Its a 400v system with thermal battery issues vs a very well cooled 800v system.

Very odd that they stayed at fast charging to 90%+

Your MME is working as expected however.

Edit: Fast charging not supercharger.
Maybe the next available charger on their trip was an extended distance. Last summer I had to travel over 200 miles to the next available charger and 80% would be a stretch.
