I just tried to make a 55-mile trip in this blizzard with my almost-4-year-old Leaf. No can do. Not enough battery capacity left (10 bars). I gave up.
This is disappointing. The car went great in the snow (I have Yokohama snow tires mounted). I kept my speed under 40 mph on the Turnpike. But I ended up bailing and headed for a known charging spot a bit out of the way. It just sucks that I own a car that I can't trust to go 55 miles.
I think I would have made it if the roads hadn't been snow-covered. I turn the heat completely off. I usually keep the cruise set to 55 mph. But, it wasn't to be.
If the Model 3 offers autopilot, then I'm ordering one ASAP.
