Questions
Can weather conditions affect my driving range?
In addition to speed and driving style, weather conditions affect the capacity of the battery:
- Strong wind
- very low temperatures, so the heating is always running. Unlike a car with a conventional engine using waste heat from the engine, an electric car must generate the heat with energy from the battery.
- Air conditioning, on the other hand, consumes very little battery capacity.
