2017 Bolt EV with 103,000mi. Battery was changed in April. During the peak summer I was getting roughly 300mi of range.

Currently the temperature has dropped from 80 to 20 degrees f. My range has dropped to roughly 140mi non-highway driving. To add to the loss, the CC2 tires have dropped it roughly 15%. A little nervous with subzero temps approaching, but a fun ride.

    EV6 RWD Long Range here in Canada (I believe in the US it’s called the Wind). Temps have been hovering between -5 and 6° for the last month or so. The guess-o-meter reads about 100km less range (so around 400 rather than 500). My usual commute efficiency (which is 95% highway) dropped from around 5.4-6Km/KWh down to about 4.4-5Km/KWh.

    It’s definitely noticeable but it’s not impossible to deal with by any stretch; it’s about the same range loss my ICE has in the winter to be honest (that can usually do around 600km on a tank in the summer, about 500 in the winter) so it’s not overly different. My wife still managed a 3000km road trip a few weeks ago without any major problems.
