COLD WEATHER RANGE AND PARKING IN
EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER
COLD WEATHER RANGE
Vehicle range is reduced when the heater is used and the battery temperat\
ure drops
below 77°F (25°C).
Using the climate control system to heat the cabin when the outside temp\
erature is
below 32°F (0°C) uses more electricity (heat pump, if so equipp\
ed) and affects vehicle
range more than using the heater at temperatures above 32°F (0°C)\
.
PARKING IN EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER
Do not store the vehicle in temperatures below -13°F (-25°C) for\
over seven days.
If the outside temperature is -13°F (-25°C) or lower, the Li-ion battery may freeze, and
it cannot be charged or provide power to run the vehicle.
For more information, refer to the “EV overview (section EV)” and the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of
your Owner’s Manual.
