AAA Study: Cold Weather Cuts EV Range by 39%, Heat by 8.5%

AAA testing reveals electric vehicle range drops 39% in freezing 20°F weather and 8.5% in extreme heat compared to optimal 65-75°F conditions. While hot weather range loss improved from 17% in 2019 to 8.5% today, cold weather performance showed little improvement. The research was conducted at AAA's Automotive Research Center in Los Angeles using a chassis dynamometer. Despite the range loss, experts say EVs remain practical in cold climates with proper planning, pointing to Norway's 98% EV adoption rate as evidence.
