As I mentioned back in May, I bought a new electric car this year. As the weather began to turn cold, I noticed the effective range go down. It is generally ok, though because everything that I would really need to drive to is within 20 miles of my house. I did find myself needing to be strategic while driving up to Port Washington, though. I ran the heater while still plugged in and then shut it off before unplugging and driving off. That seemed to work.
The winter months were my biggest worry when I bought this thing. I’m glad that it seems to be working out, so far.
