I have a stock 19’ JLUR plus steel bumpers. A little over 1000 miles. In St Louis, the weather has been 20’s to low 30’s with the exception of a handful of days north of 50. I definitely think the colder temps adversely effects the battery. With temps in the 20 to 30 range my MPG is close to 17. When it warms closer to 50 my MPG jumps to 21-22. This is 50:50 mix highway/city running 91 octane.
This should be no surprise to anyone. Battery performance has an optimal temperature range. Below 40 degrees seems to be out of that range.
