Summary: A recent test on a 2019 Jaguar I-Pace revealed that turning on the hazard lights can result in faster charging times at DC chargers, with the peak charge rate increasing from 90kW to 100kW. The EverythingEVs host reported a 10 to 80 per cent charge time of 42 minutes, which was eight minutes quicker than a previous test without the hazard lights. While the reason behind this hack is unclear, it could potentially be a useful trick for EV owners looking to reduce their charging times.
