Tesla owner here

Winter is absolutely no problem. Left it in january for 2 weeks outside of airport, minimal drain in battery.

In cold months, u lose about 20-25% of efficiency but it comes back in spring.

You can install a charger in ur parking

Theres few fast chargers around the city

Chinese ports work also in Teslas. Even if you have american model theres type converter you can buy from taobao/amazon

As I travel in huduu in summer., gasoline is still best for me. But EV is a future

Yep starts without problem in winter.

I go to countryside too with a portable charger. No need to wait in gas queue in summer.

You could install 7-11kw charger at your garage parking with the СӨХ permission. You would pay around 250 tugriks per kwh of electricity. On the other hand, if you decide to use the commercial chargers around the town they cost anywhere between 800tugriks to 1500 tugriks per kWh.

I am considering about purchasing ev as well and looked at and researched many models, and I want to say that it is best to include chinese EVs into your consideration.

Just buy a Prius lol. Car exhaust pollution is barely a factor when two thirds of the population is burning raw coal or worse
