    12% drop driving in cold weather with no heater on
    41% drop driving in cold weather + using heater

    That means the heater alone is using ~29%. But yeah its a massive drop... and doesn't even factor in other realistic driving conditions (hills, headlights, wipers, defogger, etc.). Plus these batteries degrade over time, so after 5 years, your range may be 5-10% less than when new.

    It's just all around not good. Probably fine if you just need a grocery getter in San Francisco, but for the rest of us...

    I know right? The last person the future would want is me. They would soon get tired of being called a dumbass. The movie "Demolition Man" comes to mind.
