[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to warn you, OP, but EVs get their worst mileage in cold weather.[/quote] This is largely a myth put out by rightwingers to trash EV’s in favor of ICE vehicles. It’s a republican lie. [/quote] I'm not a rightwinger or a republican, but it's common knowledge that batteries don't perform as well in cold weather. Why do you think car batteries often fail on cold days? I mean, this isn't a conspiracy.[/quote] From what I gather, twofold: cold, very cold temps decrease battery performance heater drains energy that would otherwise be used for drive-train function[/quote] Correct, but for it to be noticeable the outside temp has to be very cold, not hovering around freezing. This is just science, people. I’m all for EVs and will be buying one, because I do not intend to drive it in very cold conditions. [/quote]
