X5 xDrive50e winter electric range
Cold cuts plug-in hybrid electric range harder than full EVs, because the small battery has less energy to spare for heating. We estimate 70% of rated electric range at 0°C and 55% at −20°C. Below roughly −10°C, many plug-in hybrids start the engine to heat the cabin or battery even with charge left, so some winter driving will use gas regardless.
