Abstract
This disclosure relates to predicting a charging time for a battery of an electrified vehicle. An example electrified vehicle includes an electric machine configured to provide rotational output power to drive the electrified vehicle, a battery pack configured to output electrical power to the electric machine, and a controller. The controller is configured to predict a profile indicative of a charging rate of the battery pack. The profile is predicted based on whether the battery pack is predicted to be charged based on at least one charging limit of the battery pack.
