Driving Electric in the Cold

Last weekend, extreme cold weather caught Chicago ride share operators unprepared for driving their electric vehicles in the extreme cold. In most cases, these operators were renting vehicles through the ride sharing services with which they were affiliated. Tesla Model 3, Kia Niro, and Chevy Bolt were the most common choices, and all vehicle types found themselves dead in the water at a charge point.
