Maximizing Winter Range
- If your car supports preconditioning, use it while plugged in. This warms the battery using grid power instead of draining the battery.
- Use seat heating instead of cabin heating when possible. Seat heaters use a fraction of the energy.
- Park in a garage or sheltered area overnight. A warmer starting battery retains more capacity.
- Reduce highway speed. At -10°C, dropping from 120 km/h to 100 km/h can recover 10-15% of range.
