A new AAA study finds that when the thermometer dropped to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, range fell by an average of 41 percent on the five models it tested… Some EV drivers recently found that range can drop by half when the mercury tumbles into negative territory.

What is exactly your question? These are pretty basic facts about EV's. I don't have an exact analysis with full breakdown depending on your usage pattern. I am sure you can find them if you search online.

The question is why would I believe your opinion more than AAA study?

There is no opinion here. Those are facts. The study seems to confuse different sources of energy drain. Your actual range depends greatly on your usage profile, if you are simply driving on a highway it will be much closer to the rated range (see the link I gave you).
