Gas cars also have a 15%-24% range decrease in cold weather, and I'd expect similar results for hot weather. I think it's just more notable in EVs because of the higher average range of a gas car.

Worst case, according to the above stated figures, EVs are 100% more affected by the cold (15% vs 30%). I drive and EV and enjoy it; but let’s not obfuscate figures.
