I’ve been setting up scheduled charging on my E-Niro using my home charger’s app (charging settings on the car are disabled except for an 85% charge limit). The schedule is set for 12:30 AM to align with my cheaper electricity rates and should run for four hours.

However, out of four attempts, two have failed, and I’m trying to figure out why.

🔹 The failed charge happened when I plugged in at 6 PM, which means a 6.5-hour delay before charging was scheduled to start.
🔹 I tested an immediate manual charge after the failure, and it worked fine.
🔹 I don’t recall if on the successful charges I plugged in later (like 9–10 PM), which might make a difference.

Could the E-Niro have a sleep mode that prevents it from recognizing the scheduled charge if plugged in too early? Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a workaround?
 
No issues with mine charging after being left waiting for the charge to start. In your case, I think the car goes into deep sleep more because it is being plugged in too early. Have you tried using the car's scheduled charging instead?
