[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just to warn you, OP, but EVs get their worst mileage in cold weather. We tried to take our long range Tesla skiing and we're shocked at how bad the range was (not to mention it's entirely uphill from here to the resort and our car was loaded with people, gear and a bubble with skis). We had no problem at all driving to Florida, but the drive from here to Wisp was really annoying with two stops to charge. Plus there is no public charging at Wisp or Evergreen or several other local resorts. I'm a huge EV fan, but a ski trip is literally one of the hardest nominal tasks for an EV. If you ski a lot, I'd consider a hybrid.[/quote] This. EVs do not work for cold weather climates. [/quote] They don't "not work," you just need to charge them more in the winter than you do in the summer. Do you think gas cars don't work for city driving because they get worse mileage in town than on the highway? [/quote]
