My question was about the range at 20 below zero F, with cabin heat, defrost, lights, stereo, wipers, etc. operating.
I would really hate to be on U.S. Highway 2 across Northern Montana ("the high-line"), in January, in a blizzard, at midnight, 50 miles from the nearest town and 5 to 10 miles from the nearest ranch house, finding myself stuck because the anticipated range didn't work.
Bummer, to say the least! Yes, it would be due to my own stupidity, not the least of which was taking the damfool EV on a long trip in that kind of weather!

Typically the vehicle is going to account for its own limitations in these conditions to reduce the estimated range. You will know in advance the amount of range reduction.

You also have the option to pre-condition the vehicle from your start point with heating the cabin and battery. This eliminates the huge drain on the battery during to first 20 miles to get you comfortable in a cold soaked vehicle. Assumes you are plugged in for the hour before you roll.
