Yep, it came with the cold weather package.

You shouldn’t notice much range reduction, as long as you’re not spinning the tires. I have the same model.
I love my car. I’ve had it for almost 3 years with zero problems. The paddle shifters are great for controlling regen braking. I use regen 75% of the time, and barely use my brakes. I also get good miles per kilowatt – about 4.5 - 4.9 miles per kilowatt in my semi-rural area. It’s lower when I drive over 70mph on the highway.

Unless you’re braking hard, the brakes regenerate. A common misconception is that one-pedal driving is the most efficient. Coasting without regen is actually better than slowing down with regen, because you’ll use less battery in the end.
@Nathan
For example, going down a hill and up the other side: coasting will save battery because you can use that energy to get back up. Slowing down with regen would waste extra battery. So, coast when you can, and brake gently.
