The car has a charge immediately to some percentage at the bottom of the settings. It should be set to zero if you do not want any charge outside of your set hours. The problem experienced is that the car behaves intermittently. 8 or 9 times out of 10, the preferred charge set to a 4 hour window an...

We have an issue with the preferred charge times too. If we set the schedule to allow for 4 hours of charging, to a max SoC of 80%, it can ignore the end time and just charge to 80% regardless. Been back to Skoda twice so far and they have not provided any resolution - to be honest, they are useless...

I posted this some time ago,, but didn't get a photo of what I actually meant. This led the subject to go off into the ability to charge using solar, Zapping chargers etc...

Today I got a photo of what I meant in the original post.

In my experience, I found that the sales people weren't knowledgeable about the products they were selling, and potentially still aren't. Little or no understanding of what the heat pump did or was supposed to do and quoting high speed charging that hasn't materialised. I purchased both heat pump an...

Tonight when preparing the car for "charging at preferred times", I clicked the down arrow to select that option in the car and saw for a split second about 5 different options, one of which was charge from solar. I didn't get a photo as it was just a split second, so I was wondering if an...

A quick update on this thread, as I know that there are several on this issue and it seems consistent that people are experiencing problems with IV60 cars and slow charging rates. Having escalated to Skoda UK Customer Service, we waited 6 weeks for a response. The response was, "we have a techn...

Aragorn - good point about the blue bar, I'd not considered keeping an eye on that. I will investigate that too. Regarding the high speed charger and the behaviour, I've found this on multiple chargers with similar performance, so the common thing is the car. I've also seen similar performance if dr...

While I agree its really important to have data based information, rather than emotion based information, the car doesn't natively provide this. I'm not willing to buy and plug in a data dongle to record information to prove that my car is not performing as suggested in the Skoda advertising materia...

I find it odd that we have to do this to get anywhere near the advertised charging for the car. It's dangerous and just isn't acceptable. I've currently got an outstanding complaint in with Skoda UK due to the poor charging on high power chargers, especially since the v3 upgrade. I have a heat pump ...

I agree regarding the 100kw + charging that the battery needs to be low, but at similar battery percentage, the 50kw charger charged faster than the 350kw. I wouldn't expect 100kw + unless 10-15% but I would expect.more than 35kw unless I was over 80% full. EV database provides a useful charge chart...
