My Mach-e's range drops precipitously in the cold but it charges every night so it's not a problem for me. Still drives just the same (amazing) but my range goes down by about half! Most rides I'm at about 2.0 miles per kWh and in good weather it's closer to 4.

ID.4 is getting terrible efficiency, but we haven't really driven it more than about 1 or 2 miles at a time since the cold snap began, and turning the car on and bringing the heat to temperature really zaps the range on a short drive. I've got it plugged in now in the driveway, anyway, so I don't really care what the range is; I'm not anticipating needing to drive more than 5 or 10 miles at a time any time soon.

My range drops from 220 miles to closer to 185 once it drops below 30 degrees. Extreme cold doesnt seem to trigger a bigger drop as long as I dont crank the heat inside.

The bigger impact is that my 12 volt battery triggered a low voltage warning in mid December. Since it was already 4 years old, I went ahead and replaced it. If the 12 volt fails, you are completely stuck. Colder temps tend to really impact old 12 volt batteries.

+1. Same.

No idea. Fully charged prior. It's sitting the garage. Our street was only recently plowed, so took out the regular car for a quick errand this morning.

We haven’t driven this week but have had EVs for many years now. The only time I really noticed a problem was when we left it parked at the airport for a 10 days trip when temps were very very cold. The battery lost maybe 20 miles over the 10 days so we had to stop and charge a little on the way home (stupidly hadn’t charged enough prior to leaving).

Model Y & 3. No issues, but wasting a lot of battery warming up from single digit temps since we don't have a garage. Still glad I can just sit right in a warm car with a tap. Both cars suck in an ongoing snow storm, but the cold temps aren't an issue. We are seeing slightly slower charging times since the battery needs to be warmed.

Yikes. Mine has been fine. Slightly lower max range but no issues.

Yikes. Sorry.

My Bolt has shorter range but not that much.

What model?

Haven’t really noticed any difference to be honest.

People tend to go on and on about how they lose their charge in very cold weather, but I don't know what to believe. How are your EVs and PHEVs holding up?
