Cold Weather Driving- what range anxiety?

First big trip when its been properly cold and its….. pleasant.

Left MK after a full balance charge, rancid traffic getting out of MK & on the M1 & M6 and am now at Market Drayton en route to Wrexham.

ACC/Traffic Assist for most of the trip until I got off the M54, stats before I plugged in were:

More than reasonable considering it hasn’t gone above 8 degrees all day. Hopefully the driving mode won’t trigger anyone

Now pulling 50kW & off for a coffee at McDonalds whilst Moby gets some amps:

Take it out of eco mode and it will go above 8 degrees

An even more northern; half Norwegian, half Thai, half German guy is doing an even longer trip...

In my experience of the Ioniq, around 7-8C was the cut of point where the efficiency starts to really take a dive.

Once you get below 5 through the trip, you might well come to a very different result.
