It was the coldest day yet for our Rivian in Fairbanks, AK!
Truck spent 12+ hours outside sitting yesterday (and did not get above -20!). Only drove two short distances after sitting for several hours. First was to go home and eat some dinner before a Christmas concert at the school, so the truck only got 1 hour in a 55 degree garage as a respite!
Had no problem warming up the cabin (and did it pretty quick too) for that drive home.
Now, efficiency? Not so great, but nothing does great at these temps! For the final drive home (less than 10 miles) I saw under 1 (.08 miles per KWH!).
I was actually pretty happy with the way it performed.
Got home, and tucked it in the garage and set charger to not kick in until midnight to give vehicle time to thaw!
