Why Cold Weather Kills a Tesla - and Every Other EV on the Market
Tesla owners in Chicago recently faced a significant issue when their vehicles were left dead, completely unable to charge in the frigid subzero temperatures, highlighting the fact that cold weather is a major Achilles' heel for electric vehicles (EVs).
I used to own a Bolt EV. During summer, range 258 miles.
During winter 120-160 miles, and the colder it is the less far it goes.
I never experienced a polar vortex with my bolt, I took the Chevy buyback when they got recalled for exploding into flames.
