I think 10-30% is sweet spot for fast charging M3 so they will always try to run it below 10% just to get best DC charging rates. Also checking latest tweets they hit a station that gave 73kW. I assume they only charge to what they need to get to the next supercharger in that case so that increases the amount of stops in their speed run across Canada.

What sort of impact does supercharging or short charging have on battery longevity? Battery degradation seems to be a concern although I'm not certain if there is enough real world data yet for establishing optimal charging parameters and obviously every vehicle is different in terms of thermal management systems.
