A method for operating a motor vehicle having an electric drive device, a traction battery connected to the drive device, and a charging port connected to the traction battery via a switch arrangement. The switch arrangement opens in a first switching state to interrupt an electrical connection between the traction battery and the charging port and closes in a second switching state to establish the electrical connection. During charging of the traction battery by electrical energy at the charging port with the switch arrangement set to the second switching state, a charging output is determined, and if the charging output falls below a threshold value, the charging of the traction battery terminates. A time duration until a renewed charging of the traction battery is predicted based a state variable and the switch arrangement is held in the second switching state if the time duration falls below a time threshold value.
A method for operating a motor vehicle, with an electric drive device, a traction battery electrically connected to the drive device, and a charging port electrically connected to the traction battery via a switch arrangement, wherein the switch arrangement is opened in a first switching state to interrupt an electrical connection between the traction battery and the charging port and closed in a second switching state to establish the electrical connection, characterized in that, during charging of the traction battery by means of electrical energy provided at the charging port with the switch arrangement set to the second switching state, a charging output is determined and if the charging output falls below an output threshold value, the charging of the traction battery is terminated, wherein a time duration until a renewed charging of the traction battery is determined predictively on the basis of at least one state variable and the switch arrangement is held in the second switching state if the time duration falls below a time threshold value and is set to the first switching state if the time duration exceeds the time threshold value.
