Electrified GV70 range at 0°C

Around freezing, we estimate the Electrified GV70 keeps about 80% of its rated range. Heat pump fitment on the Electrified GV70 varies by model year and trim, so we use a mid-point between heat-pump and non-heat-pump results. Check the window sticker of a specific vehicle.

Electrified GV70 range at −20°C

At −20°C, battery chemistry slows and cabin heating runs hard, so we estimate about 58% of rated range. The best Electrified GV70 ranks #56 of 62 in our −20°C estimates.

Electrified GV70 range in cold weather in Canada

Most winter range loss is temporary: it returns when temperatures rise. Owners in Canada recover a good share of it by preheating the cabin and battery while still plugged in, using seat and steering wheel heaters instead of high cabin temperatures, parking in a garage when possible, and keeping tires at the recommended pressure, which drops as air cools.

Fast charging is also slower on a cold battery. If the Electrified GV70 offers battery preconditioning, set your navigation to the charger so the battery warms on the way.
