500e charging slow - normal or issue?

[Brickzero88]

Just picked up my 500e La Prima, and I gotta say, I’m a bit puzzled by the charging speed. Got the Easy Wallbox hardwired and cranked up to 7.4kW, but even with the battery sitting around 90%, I’m only getting 4.3kW. Is this normal? Does the charging rate throttle back as it gets closer to full? Total EV newbie here, so hit me with your wisdom! Maybe I'm missing something obvious?

In short, yeah, that's normal. But read this for more details.

Congrats on the 500e! Yep, the charging speed slows down as it gets closer to full, kind of like how we all slow down when we’re almost at the finish line. So, nothing to worry about just the battery being polite

Yes, this is what happens. Don't worry. Your car is all good.
