“”””””””””Tesloop is a company that sells a “regional EV mobility network,” meaning it offers rides in Teslas between the cities of Los Angeles, San Diego, Palm Springs, and Las Vegas”””””””””””””””

Where the weather is always warm and dry. Any vehicle can survive that.

Bring that thing up here to Minneapolis and let me know how it lasts through five winters covered in salt and road chemicals.

It was fifteen below a few days ago. How does it like cold weather with the heaters and defrosters going full blast?

The article went on to say that the Tesla went through a couple of A/C compressors.

I’m not sure which would be a bigger battery drain - A/C going full blast in 100+ degree heat. Or the heater going full blast at 15 below.

Either way - that is a big energy drain.
