Welcome to our world. Our old leaf didn't have a lot of range to begin with so a 30 percent hit kinda hurt. But then again it was just our commuter car. Good car though. With front wheel drive it did pretty good in the snow.

We prefer our all wheel drive model 3 Tesla but our needs have changed.

Generally speaking EV's don't really care about |starting" in winter. There is nothing to really start. Not even a key to turn. LOL. Your butt hits the seat and the car is activated...assuming your phone is turned on. :)
