Another article regarding Norway.
insideevs.com - Norway winter EV charging no trouble“According to a story published by The New York Times, EV drivers in Norway are used to preheating their cars before going out for a drive in freezing temperatures.”
When it’s bitterly cold you need to keep your gas/diesel/electric vehicle plugged in and warm. Seems like an educational issue for the vehicle owning populace in general.
My other favorite quote from the article:
“And remember, people riding around in horse-drawn carriages used to laugh at motorists in the early days when petrol had to be bought from the pharmacy in glass jars.”
Everyone has to look at their own individual use case to determine whether the current technology will meet their needs. We drove our EV 80mi/130km yesterday in -10F/-12C temps at 80mph/130kmh speeds and had no issues and no anxiety. We did stop at a gas station but it was for over priced drinks and snacks between games. There is probably a future for Pilot.
