From Transport Evolved.

The temperature is falling in the Northern Hemisphere, and that means for many first-time EV owners, their first winter.

As usual, we’ve heard of many first-time owners worrying about winter performance and behavior, so it’s that time of year again when we give everyone a quiet reminder about how to improve your EV’s winter performance – and why plugging in is essential to keeping winter range loss to an absolute minimum.
