Reduced range in the winter months, even up to 50% is nothing new to tesla or any EV brand.

However a slower charging curve is a big deal, other EV's are referred to as suffering from #coldgate when the cold slows down charging speeds. Up until now Tesla have been immune to #coldgate thanks to preconditioning the battery when enroute to a supercharger. I wonder if the new LFP cells need to be hotter to avoid #coldgate? Here's hoping this is a simple OTA fix to the preconditioning algorithms.
