Abstract

A vehicle includes a traction battery configured to be charged from an external power source via a vehicle charger, a transceiver configured to wirelessly transmit vehicle data to an external server and to wirelessly receive adaptive traction battery charging settings from the external server, an interface module configured to selectively override control of the vehicle charger based on the adaptive traction battery charging settings wirelessly received via the transceiver from the external server, a human-machine interface (HMI), and a controller in communication with a persistent on-board vehicle memory, the vehicle charger, the override module, and the HMI, the controller configured to receive manually entered traction battery charging settings via the HMI, store the manually entered traction battery charging settings in the persistent on-board vehicle memory, and selectively control the vehicle charger using the manually entered traction battery charging settings in response to the adaptive traction battery charging settings being unavailable.
