The EV models that did not utilize a heat pump, including the ID.4, saw their batteries reduced by an average of 28 percent, compared to an average of 13 percent for cars with heat pumps, Recurrent’s analysis found. Overall, heat pumps added roughly 10 percent extra range to cars during freezing conditions, the report said.
