7 bars and higher is bad. I won't charge mine and won't drive it unless I have to.
Oh also those temperature bars cover a range that is not set in stone.
It's a formula made up of a few different things. That chart should be accurate for any car with a good battery with most of its capacity.
I'm actively trying to get a 62kwh battery.
The main mods I will do to it are:
Add some combination of 120v and 12v stick on heaters up to 500w.
50F temperature switches.
Coating of spray foam and asphalt.
A mechanical temperature gauge.
Possibly a vent system.
