Although I'm thrilled to receive my BZ4X FWD at last, I have a query regarding DC fast charging. A daily cap of two quick charges was advised by my salesperson. Is this accurate?

Prolonged charging times don't really concern me, but I wonder whether they would make prolonged car journeys more difficult. Does anyone else know about this restriction or have any firsthand knowledge about it? I’m kind of doubtful with what I was told.
 
I doubt it's the charging stations. It's most likely due to fast charging. Fast charging can be extremely stressful on batteries, and not just in the BZ4X. Tesla vehicles have cooling components to keep the battery cool, but the BZ4X may not.

The BZ4X can charge to 80% quickly, but it slows down for the final 20% to keep the battery cool. You can fast charge a lot, but it may damage the battery in the long run.
