Hi --
My 2011 Nissan Leaf SL and I are in San Francisco now, but we are considering a move to Chicago for a career change. Of course, that means much colder winters, so I'm considering whether I should add the cold weather package. I understand that the battery heater only starts at -4 F and stops at 14 F... but -4 actually could be a reality in a place like Chicago.
Does anyone have information on:
1. Whether you can add a cold weather package to an existing 2011 Leaf.
2. How much it would cost.
3. Whether it is worth the cost, and if I decide not to get it, how much range might be lost on those days when the battery gets very cold (i.e. below -4 F).
Thanks,
Josh
