Note that the fast charger *offers* a max charge speed, the EV is in control to request what it can handle. In the case of 2012 Leaf, it will ask for I believe the max is 120 Amps, until the first cell starts reaching 4.12V, then it starts throttling back. I once had a deteriorated 24kWh pack that charged max speed only from 0 to 30%, then started throttling...
