Yesterday the temperatures were almost freezing (+2°C), and I noticed that the power consumption increased drastically. On my usual route, I usually consume 20% of the battery, but yesterday, I was surprised to find that this consumption was 29%, an increase of almost 50% compared to usual.

Have you guys ever noticed the same in similar weather conditions ?

I get the same with my Tc max. I usually take in my battery to charge in which case there’s no real change in range as the battery is still room temp, but if I have left it out In the cold I use about 5% more. (2 degrees C outside temp)

I believe charging is different when it’s cold too but haven’t yet tried it yet

Well, thanks for your feedback, that's less than what I experienced, maybe I have another problem. I'll check again...
