We own a 2021 Model 3 that we purchased second hand with 7.5k miles. Yes, performance is noticeably impacted in cold weather, especially below 40 degrees F. Tesla probably deserves the scrutiny and best on tenge estimates and claims and how it handles customer service issues. However, consumers can also educate themselves better on current EV battery performance issues in cold weather and what happens when all systems are blasted while driving over the speed limit. A lot of factors influence range performance whether it is an EV or ICE vehicle.
