J1.1 battery more sensitive to cold weather than other EVs?

[FinPat]

In Finland we have a wonderful and warm summer season which both me and CT 4 are enjoying. CT 4 even gets borderline OK range now when thermometer shows 24C° or so and sun doesn't set at all.

Based on unscientific, N = 1 research I would claim that J1.1 is noticeably more sensitive to cold weather than my previous daily driver EVs over the years, Tesla Model 3 LR AWD and MB EQE 350 4Matic. I don't have any real numbers to share but just a "feeling" about more drastic loss of range in cold.

Any other member having similar experiences or am I just imagining things?

I think it applies to the J1.2 as well, but I don't think it's the battery itself. Instead, I think the car is very aggressive about warming up its battery (track ready, any time!).

Cut off point seems to be when the ambient temp is 65F (18C), that's when I see jumps in effeciency.
