And it goes a whole thirty miles during a Canadian winter.

Oh that is nonsense! As long as you keep your garage temperature above 60F and wait to take the car out until the outside air temperature is at least 30F and try not to drive under 60mph while driving on a route where you can you to use your regenerative braking as frequently as possible (to help keep the battery warm), you should be able to go at least forty miles. Just make sure you don't park the car in the cold anywhere along the route if it is more than 2 miles back to your house.

Yea, yet another TESLA-SKEPTIC!!!, just like those guys that won’t agree with the hockey stick. EVERYONE KNOWS you’ll get 40 miles on a charge in the Canadian winter, if you UNDERSTAND the vehicle and treat it right - not 30 miles as Jonty claimed.

Hopefully JR bans this TESLA-DENIER...after all there is a ‘national consensus’ that Elon Musk is actually God, but hasn’t gotten around to announcing it yet.
