I typically only drive 15-20 miles round trip a day. Given that, does it make sense to only charge to 80% for battery health purposes? My understanding is that keeping a battery topped off is less efficient for the long term health of the battery.

I would still comfortably be within an all-electric range. Then on those days when I’ll do longer drives, charge it to 100%.

This question is unrelated to the battery safety recall issue, where it’s recommended you only charge to 80% for safety reasons; my car so far hasn’t been affected by that.
