“I’m assuming some of the best of these EV’s could handle that in the summer”
With the A/C blasting the whole way?
What a laugh.
As a matter of fact A/c reduces the distance by like 27%.
But, that’s nothing compared to winter! In gasoline car heating is practically free, as it just re-routs the cooling heat to inside of the vehicle. No additional energy is needed, except for the fan.
On the other hand, EV has to burn all that electricity to generate heat. So during cold weather, EV makes only like half of the distance! Just terrible. Do not buy Tesla if you live in Canada!
To give EV credit when credit is due, EV recycles breaking energy and does not need to idle, so it is actually doing great in stop and go!
Stop and go in spring weather (no H or AC) is when EV compares well to gasoline.
