Anecdotal, but my personal experience with an Ioniq 5 in -28C increased the power consumption by about 50% over summer driving. My test was about 42 km, done with comfortable, driver-only cabin heat on a flat highway with no wind.
Average highway consumption is about 20 kWh/100km, that test was 29.3 kWh/100km.
Saying that, an EV is quite practical in Saskatchewan, Canada. Charging is finally getting to a point where that extreme winter range limitation is less of an issue. Having a second ICE vehicle does take the pressure off if one absolutely has to travel when it's that cold out though.
By the way, what's the ioniq 5 to live with so far overall? And is that the new shape or the previous model. I do quite like the new retro shape, although the range of ioniq 6 is impressive as well (less so the design in some colours)
I love it. It's a 2023 model, so the new shape. It's the vehicle of choice for nearly all trips we take over a '20 Subaru Outback. Charging is slowly expanding in the province so it's becoming even easier to plan drives. Really the biggest frustration is our biggest city only has 50 kW fast charging.
Interesting, luckily don't really expect those temps in lower mainland BC so the other link was handy as they did their tests at -2 to -10 C. Still that's a noticeable drop if you don't have particularly good range to begin with.
