How much does an electric car lose in winter? Car manufacturers do not mention autonomy in the technical sheets of their electrical models in winter conditions. According to tested automobile journalists and models, it is difficult to know how much losses are. CAA-QUECE and the Canadian Motorist Association (CAA) performed a large comparative test with the 13 best-selling electric vehicles in Canada. To this end, they determined the same parameters for each of the models and compared the results obtained with official autonomy published by Natural Resources, which was taken with a single load.
Two vehicles whose battery decrease is slowest in winter is Polestar 2 and Chevrolet Silverado EV, only -14 % loss of autonomy. Recharge Volvo XC40 is very good with -39 %.
In the middle of winter you should know that we will have to deduct between 100 and 150 kilometers with full load and take this restriction when traveling on a long journey.
There are also many differences for charging times that differ from 10 to 80 %. For example, 33 minutes must be expected that the KIA EV9 batteries will reach 80 % of its full capacity from the fast charging station, but to wait 92 minutes for Toyota BZ4X.
According to the survey cited by the same source, 53 % of electric vehicles prefer a petrol vehicle for long trips in winter and 67 % of experience concerning autonomy in cold weather.
Tesla in riots
We are talking about the commercial taxes, which was imposed by Donald Trump, talk about the boycott of American production products and several people asked me if it would be a good idea to boycott Tesla. You are not sure that the US government is moving. If Tesla buyers no longer harm the manufacturer, a certain number of employees could lose a job without getting lucky to Elon Musk, the greatest happiness in the world, or even impressing the president in office.
This does not prevent some local initiatives, sometimes more associated with Tax tax by Trump’s government than Tesla boycott. The city council in Toronto thus approved the proposal submitted by Olivia Chow, which aimed to exclude Tesla vehicles from the motivational program for electric vehicles (taxis and cooperation as Uber) as repairs against the threat of customs tariffs.
However, Tesla sales have dropped considerably from the US elections, especially in Europe, with an average decline of 50.4 % between January 2024 and January 2025. In China, one of the largest brands, a decreased by 11.5 % since 2021. We do not know how the founder will react, appointed to the non -failure of the “Ministry of Effectiveness of the Government”, with responsibility for half of the public service expenditure, and must return directly to Donald Trump.
Depending on the version 3 and $ 4,000 for the Y, Model S and Model C, regardless of versions regardless of the Y, Y, the Y, and the C model, regardless of the Y, the Y, the Y, and the C and $ 4,000, regardless of the Y, Y and C model, the Tesla 000 USD for model Y, Model S and Model C. As far as the futuristic monster is concerned,
Cybertruck, which the buyers are not in a hurry, is considerable to fall in prices, but it is not enough to make it more accessible. Cybertruck, with two engines and full -fledged, detailed at $ 137,990 and is now offered at 114,990 %, while Cyberbeast, with three electric engines in the overall advantage of 845 horsepower and offered to $ 165,990, is now sold for $ 142,990. New prices to which different costs and federal luxury tax must be added.
Buy a car assembled in Canada
In the same spirit, many wish to buy vehicles assembled in Canada. However, some versions of the same model are imported. For example, you will find only a super obligation taken from the Ford Truck of F. On the GM side, only Chevrolet Silverado LD (slight duty) and a heavy duty are based on the factory in Canada. For Stellantis you can get Chrysler Grand Caravan and Pacifica, but also Dodge Charge Electric. You can also contact Honda Civic and CR-V, as well as the RAV4 Toyota, one of the best-selling SUVs in Canada. Choosing all this very limited.
We can also turn to imported vehicles and ensure that it is not
Built and/or collected in the United States.
