> I am curious how this works in the North during winter

We have a BMW i3 94Ah model. When it's not cold we get about 230km range.

When it's fairly cold, -10C or below, that drops significantly. Not helped by my SO's requirement to not feel cold. Reported range is about 160km at worst (cold batteries).

Still, we live in the city and it's been just fine for us. We just leave it connected in the garage over night and set the planned departure time in the morning. That way it's ready with heated batteries, which helps a lot.

It hasn't bothered us so far. We knew the limitations going in, so we just plan a bit. Every now and then we get an extra 10-20 minute charging stop on our way back, meh.

Being able to fill the tank at home, so to speak, is great though. So is the lack of engine noise when driving slow or in traffic. It quickly became clear that our next vehicle would definitely be another EV.
