I don't know about Tesla, but as the video I included in the article showed, the Ford electric pickup track got it's range cut in half when it was cold. I've heard from other electric car owners that the range really drastically drops in winter.

Gasoline cars get worse mileage in winter too, but not nearly as bad as electric cars. Electric cars use the battery to heat the cabin, gasoline cars use the warm engine to heat up the cabin so much more efficient that way.
