Both hot and cold affect EVs, and not just because of battery chemistry. Our range goes down in summer because we run the A/C. Winter we don't need the heater much (Phoenix), but both would rely on energy from the big battery. Note that ICE mpg goes down if you run the A/C, also.

With no A/C, we charge to about 270 miles. It turns out to be a little less with freeway speeds and no stopping, because of air resistance (increases with speed) and the lack of regen from the brakes.

Around town, and when I commuted to work, it is ideal.
