It would probably make sense for the EPA to have a cold weather test to help give a better picture.

Cold weather really isn't 50%, especially with the heat pumps. Like maybe on a non heat pump, if you don't preheat, and have a lead foot directly onto a highway, but even then.

All that said, none of that is the doom and gloom of the title if that's all it is.

I still think the real risk is from AP/FSD.

This range thing probably won't result in anything significant
