Why is the range of the Kia EV6 lower in colder temperatures?

I've noticed that the range of my Kia EV6 electric vehicle decreases significantly in cold temperatures. Is this a common issue with EVs? What can I do to improve the range in colder climates?

Yes, this is a common issue with all EVs. Cold temperatures affect the performance of the battery, resulting in a lower range.

To improve the range in colder temperatures, you can preheat your car while it is still plugged in. This will warm up the battery and make it more efficient.

Another solution is to use a heated seat instead of blasting the heater. This will save energy and help improve range.
