Ultium batteries and charging to 100%

Since I'm leasing and live in flat Ohio, I happily charge to 100%, free range. GM says Ultium batteries don't degrade from fast charging or full charges, thanks to advanced chemistry with aluminum. They even claim it'll outlast the Bolt's battery. Acura's EV ad flashing "100% charge" proves it's a strong selling point especially with Ultium tech inside. Anyone else regularly charging to 100%? Have you noticed any issues?
 
Yuppp...charging to 100% every time, I do daily flatland driving, so I like having the full range, no issues at all so far for me, we shouldn't see the same kind of long term degradation though hopefully
 
Same here,100% every night, and no problems so far. Flat terrain helps, and I trust GM's Ultium tech. It's great not stressing about battery health like we had to with older EVs
 
In which Lyriq model years are the Ultium batteries used? Does anyone know if charging them to 100 % will void the battery or other warranties on the vehicle? Those of us who own, rather than lease, our vehicles may take pause with the 100 % charge suggestion here. We do live in the flat part of Maryland. Charging to 100 % could certainly be useful for the long vacation road trips we tend to do each summer.
