2017 Bolt EV with 103,000mi. Battery was changed in April. During the peak summer I was getting roughly 300mi of range.

Currently the temperature has dropped from 80 to 20 degrees f. My range has dropped to roughly 140mi non-highway driving. To add to the loss, the CC2 tires have dropped it roughly 15%. A little nervous with subzero temps approaching, but a fun ride.

    Depends on the driving.
    Normal commute takes a big hit; ~25 minute trips, every one starting with a cold battery plus having to heat the cabin.

    Long trips aren’t as bad, bit of initial heating but otherwise not too much on maintaining said temps in the grand scale of things.
    Of course there’s colder (thus denser) air, softer winter tires.

    Reckon 10-25% loss on longer trips, upwards of 40% for short/city trips.
