Which EV did you buy? I have a 2015 Tesla S 70D and the weather, heater, etc., don't seem to make as much difference as you say. But it is the only EV that I have any first hand knowledge of.
Mind you, the real range is nearer 200 miles so I rarely need to worry about running out. On a 10 A, 230 V, single phase connection (Norway) it will add more than 80 miles overnight (say 18:00 to 06:00) so it is perfectly practical for everyday use.
At a Tesla Supercharger it takes an hour to go from 20% to 80%, that is adding over 100 miles.
