Cold Weather EV Tips

❄️ Range Loss in Winter

EVs can lose 20-50% of range in cold weather due to:

  • • Battery chemistry less efficient in cold
  • • Cabin heating draws significant power
  • • Increased rolling resistance from cold tires
  • • Battery warming systems use energy

Maximize Winter Range

  • Precondition: Warm the cabin while plugged in before departure
  • Heated seats: Use seat/steering wheel heaters instead of cabin heat
  • Eco mode: Limit acceleration and use regenerative braking
  • Garage storage: Keep vehicle warmer when parked
  • Plan extra stops: Add 30-40% buffer to winter trip planning
