I think my 2017 Leaf came with a 'cold weather package' which included seat heaters, etc. I always assumed that option package included the battery heater but maybe not?
 
Something new to me today: after about 5 years and 60K miles, I had this happen for the first time- 24 below F overnight and I had to take a 30 mile jaunt his AM, started out at 14 below and came home at 11 below, so cold. Leafspy showed a normal progression from about 50% SOC, faster than usual but acceptable ending up around 20%. The GOM went nuts, jumped up and down, finally started to blink and warn and showed 2% and no miles etc. The question, for you with cold weather experience: will the car go into Turtle Mode when the GOM is doing this, or will I be able to drive further based on what Leafspy is telling me?
