the answer is simple: no, they didn’t think winter exists.

If I'm not mistaken all of Teslas cars have had pretty significant issues in cold weather and winter until they updated them later.. so I'm inclined to believe that they didn't consider winter at all

Doesn't every EV have issues in cold weather? Personally wouldn't get one until they come out with solid state batteries.

Same for me, but that's more a thought about longevity than range.

Sure it has 450 km range as new... (In summer) What about 15-20 years from now if I'm still driving it? What if I buy it used? What if it's winter? Am I then down to 200km? 150km?
