  • Publication number: 20220194255
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a traction battery, a human-machine interface (HMI), and a controller. The controller responsive to detecting electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) utilizing multiple price tiers corresponding to multiple maximum charge powers, outputs a message indicating a charge price corresponding to the maximum charge power for each of the price tiers via the HMI. The controller also, responsive to receiving user input indicating an adjusted maximum charge power less that a default maximum charge power of the vehicle, sends the adjusted maximum charge power to the EVSE and permits charging from the EVSE at or below the adjusted maximum charge power.
