Good point on scheduling charging prior to leaving or using veh.
Let me relay some advice I have been given for winter .
Your use of ac/heater will impact how fast the battery drains of course, but that's up to you to monitor while driving.
What is good for you to know is that the cold itself reduces what you can have as expected range before you even step in car. So having your battery warm before you leave home will help.
If your model has a battery heater and you can schedule it, set it to two hours before you leave home.
Rather than charging when you get home at night, schedule the charging so that it ends at around the time you expect to leave the house in the morning. Even if you don't have a battery heater, even the act of charging the battery itself will warm it up a little before you leave.
Hope this helps
