The 'electric blanket' method was used on the Xebras. Insulation is far more important than heat, but heat helps.

Charging at the shop drew 3.04 kwH. 3.04/5.5=553 Wh/m

This is not totally accurate because the charing cycles took place at vastly different temperatures, also note that this was all night driving so the running lights were all lit.

Nobody else has any winter EV stories or tips to share?
