You’ll never hear that.
It’s like the guy that was stuck on the highway in Virginia during that winter storm.
Don’t charge the battery all the way so you don’t damage the battery but you’ll get less performance.
Someone posted on another thread a few days ago: EV’s do not use electricity if they are not moving. If so, how do the radio, AC, heater, lights and any other electronics work if they aren’t using electricity.
Study Shows Electric Cars Become Practically Useless In Cold Weather ... One study by AAA suggested that cold temperatures can reduce the range of the batteries in most electric cars by over 40 percent.
So, I’ll be a bit suspicious of this guy saying that he lasted the whole night, in freezing temps, in his EV.
And given the fervor that EV owners and fluff-boys...quite a few on here...have, none of them will admit to their toy cars failing them. They’ll tell us until they’re blue in the face that everything was A-OK.
I’ll post the same thing that I always post regarding my EV. For good battery maintenance you shouldn’t charge above 90% on a regular basis and don’t let the charge go below 20% on a regular basis. For my car, in beautiful weather that gives me about 150 mile range or better. If it is below freezing, as it was last winter, that range can be cut in half. The car does use a little energy when not in use, but when I went away for more than two weeks it went into energy saving mode and lost about 1% of the charge during that 16 days.
