How do you maintain your driving range in winter?
Yes, temperature has an impact on your vehicle’s driving range, especially low temperatures. Both the motor and the heating use the battery. The battery will therefore drain faster when the vehicle is heated and will be unable to provide the motor with electricity for as long.
Our advice for maintaining good driving range in winter:
- Park your vehicle indoors if you can;
- Activate thermal preconditioning of the vehicle's interior when plugged in, so that the battery is "dedicated" to the engine when driving and not to temperature control;
- Make sure your tyres are at the correct pressure.
Comfort tip : The heated seats and steering wheel (winter pack) enhance your thermal comfort while optimising your electric vehicle’s overall consumption.
