Wisconsin winters do affect electric range and charging speed. Cold temperatures can reduce your EPA-estimated range and slow down charging times, so planning ahead is smart.

The good news: you can prepare. Home charging means you start each day with a full charge for commuting. Preconditioning (warming the battery before driving) helps efficiency. And thoughtful route planning-knowing where public chargers are-takes the guesswork out of longer trips.

Markquart Motors' factory-trained Chevrolet technicians and specialists are here to help you understand winter EV ownership in the Chippewa Falls area. We can explain charging speeds, home charging setup, and strategies to maximize range in cold months. Call us at (715) 833-0444 or visit to learn more.
