Electric vehicles lose efficiency in cold weather: AAA - motor club warns drivers.
(WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- ...be advised that cold weather decreases your driving range almost by half.
“When it dips to 20 degrees and the HVAC system is being used to heat the inside of the vehicle, the average driving range is decreased by 41 percent,” Hart says.
That means instead of getting 100 miles of combined urban and highway driving, the range at 20 degrees would be reduced to 59 miles."
