Being a Minnesotan my entire life, this resonates. A 300 mile range EV = 150 half the year. I can still easily get 300 miles out of my gas car in the dead of winter, and it only takes five minutes to fill vs however long at a charger, if it even works.

Xmas day last year, I flew into Minneapolis after a week in Costa Rica. It was 9pm, 0⁰ and had been cold and snowing all week. I rode the shuttle to the park and stay hotel that my car was parked at. It was a 2010 VW CC with 275,000 miles and it had the full tank of gas I left it with. I swept off some snow and started it right up. I drove it to the lobby and loaded all my stuff while it warmed a bit. I then drove 300 miles home, no stops, and arrived with about 200 miles "range" left. You can't spend enough money to buy an EV that can do that.

There's this very large screen in front of the driver displaying all of this information about the battery, remaining charge, outside temperature, suggestions to save battery life...... but you must not ever be distracted using your cell phone...... SMH!

Well, I was born in the 80s so we all learned this when we would get our favorite remote control cars on Christmas and then try to go outside and play with them in the snow for all of seven minutes

Its refreshing to finally starting to see honest reviews of EVs out in the wild.

Hertz is selling 20,000 Model 3's for about $26,000. You will have some competition. I am sure your 3 is in much better shape.

The range anxiety in the cold like that would be terrible. Can't imagine running out of change in -2 degrees.

I live in Finland. We recently had a nice cold week of -30C or -22F everyday. My car is parked outside all day. Still get 600km+ out of my diesel car at a full tank in a blizzard while using studded tires, which have more drag than all season tires. Some cars like mine have a separate engine heater (Webasto) which helps to keep the battery from dying and it uses the diesel as fuel. Diesel is king in the cold north.

This is another reason to keep driving my reliable 2002 Lincoln Town Car that has been my daily driver since 2007. It is 22 years old with 124k miles on it, and it hasn't lost any "range." When it was new it had a rating of 23 mpg on the highway. In December, I drove it 815 miles from Maryland to Florida, and got 23.7 mpg.
When I left Maryland, it was 22 degrees F, and I had to let the car warm up for about five minutes as the windows were covered in ice and frost. When I got back into the car to leave, it was so warm inside the car that I immediately took off my hat and heavy coat. Granted, it wasn't as nearly as cold in Maryland as it was in Denver, but I noticed that after driving more than two hours in the Tesla, Tommy never took off his hat or coat. It must have still been chilly inside that car. My car doesn't lose any "range" when I turn the heat on.

It never ceases to amaze me how so many people can like a sub-par anything and will try to convince others how great it is when it is obvious it's not. Reminds me of something else that came along about 3.5 years ago.

You should have tried that up here in Alberta this past week…we were running consistant -30C with night time to -40C. And!….the electricity grid operator was telling us not to charge electric cars because the system was in overload and dangerously close to rolling blackouts. (One morning I checked and the windchill temperature was -63F!) Sorry, never was in favour of electric cars and believe that hybrid is the way to go if you must change from a gas guzzler. Of course, IC vehicles are starting to get some pretty good mileage in recent years. People just never clued in on how much energy is packed into a tank of gasoline. Oh...and tires? I use Cross Climate II for a summer and shoulder season tire; nothing but X-Ice for a winter tire. There IS a big difference in the amount of traction you get.

I have been driving an ev for 4 years. I live at 7200 feet in the mountains in northern Utah. It seems like I loose 40-50% of my range in the winter. Maybe on a good day I can only have a 30% reduction. Great test :)

I drove from Dallas TX to Lubbock TX while the weather was 10 Degrees Fahrenheit. The range was TERRIBLE, I almost got stranded in the middle of rural Texas and when I made it to the supercharger there were THREE teslas getting towed to the supercharger because their range estimates weren't even close to actual. As for me the car estimated I'd make it to my destination with 30% battery(Model Y LR), I got there with 2 miles left....

I live in Minnesota and yeaaaaaaahh...I wondered about winter driving conditions, so I for one GREATLY appreciate this kind of real-world information.

My Honda Insight gets me 500 mile range, and I actually hit that per tank. Fill ups are comically quick as I have little a 10 gallon tank (I'm always done filling up before anyone else at the gas station). My car only cost me 21k used. Tires are much cheaper and last longer than EVs, as do brake pads, and cold while it affects my range, doesn't affect it THIS bad. I may go from 65mpg to 50-55mpg. Why would I want one of these things, again?

Seems like an awful lot of hassle just to love an EV.
I'll hang on to my gas powered Tahoe. Best of luck with range anxiety.

160 miles instead of 270 — so ~40% less than typical — at -3 degrees F / -19 degrees C.

Since I live in the Chicago suburbs in an apartment without on-site charging and we are a 1 car household, a Tesla is of no use to me. Your video proves that to me. Thanks!

Canada here. When it gets cold, I'm passing Teslas on the highway going 45-50 mph and they're probably driving white knuckles while watching the range dropping. If I'm ever forced to abandon my ICE, it'll be a hybrid with a battery large enough for daily commute but still capable to rely on gas stations for longer distances
