I have a 2016 Cayenne plug in hybrid. I have a dedicated 30A plug for this car and with the included Cayenne charger I can fully charge the small battery in about 2 hours, rough estimate around 7kw charging speed. Unfortunately with this 1st gen charger there isn't a lot more information available.
I have another 50A outlet which I use for the Taycan, using the new PMCC I can see it pulling the max 40A out of the circuit (well, usually 39 point something). Just for fun I plugged the new PMCC to my Cayenne and expectedly that dropped the amp down, but it went all the way down to 15amp! Resulted in a much slower charging. Only managed the get to 100% on the 14kwh battery after about 4 hours.
Isn't this a little odd? Why would the charging be slower with Taycan's PMCC than my old Cayenne charger plugged into a lower amp circuit?
