My car was delivered this afternoon none and I must say it looks the nuts, pictures to follow.

The car came with 98% battery and after a couple of drives in it , it went down to 94%.
I put it on charge from my 7kw pod point , but when I checked the charging speed on MySkoda app it was only showing 3kw.

So my question is, does the home charger act the same way as a fast charger when a battery is nearly full and ramp down with kw charging speed.

It's the car that determines the charging speed, not the suppling device. There have been some recent posts about getting less than 7kW on an AC charge - I can't remember what the outcome was though.

It was at 94% and you put it on charge?

Hi,

I got the same issue the first time I charged it at home. There is an option to reduce power consumption when charging in AC. Make sure you disable it. Then you can charge at maximum charger speed.

When was you Pod installed, and does it have the Fuse Saver function activated when it was installed ? Only reason I ask is this will limit the chargers output if you have high load items on in the home while charging oven/induction hob to limit the risk of overloading your mains fuse.

Have you managed to get anything above 3kW while charging at home yet ?
