Winter range

Rated range is measured in mild conditions. Here is roughly what to expect once it is cold, from real-world data rather than a rule of thumb.

At 0°C

445 km

Likely between 393 km and 502 km depending on the car

At −7°C

399 km

A normal January day across most of Canada

If you can only charge from a normal outlet

A standard 120V household outlet adds about 17.3 kWh over 12 hours — roughly 119 km of driving in mild weather, or about 83 km in the cold. For a commute shorter than that, Level 1 keeps up overnight without a charger installation.

Whether this vehicle has a heat pump is not recorded, so the band above covers both cases. Estimated from Recurrent winter range study — real-world telemetry from more than 30,000 vehicles across 34 models. A heat pump is the single biggest factor in cold weather, worth about 10 percentage points at 0°C.
