Winter range, charging cost and how far it goes, worked out for Ogden's weather, grid and prices.
In a typical Ogden January (29°F), a LYRIQ gets an estimated 250 miles on a charge, 20% less than its 314-mile rating, and about the same in the coldest week of the year (around December 30, when it averages 28°F). By May it's back to about 371.

And Ogden's grid (WECC Northwest), 18% cleaner than the US average, makes it 67% less CO₂ than gas.
Partly estimated. 1 of 5 temperature bands are from 84 real drives of this model; the rest come from 1,548 real drives in EVs at each temperature (and Recurrent's winter study below freezing), applied to its 314-mile rating. Each band switches to its own drives once it has 20 from 3 drivers.

Questions Ogden drivers ask
How far can a LYRIQ go in a Ogden winter?
About 250 miles on a typical January day (29°F) and about the same in the coldest week of the year (around December 30, 28°F on average), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's 20% below its 314-mile rating, mostly from heating the cabin and the battery. Ogden averages 68 days a year below freezing.
How much does it cost to charge a LYRIQ in Ogden?
About $59 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at Utah's average home electricity rate of 13.1¢/kWh: about 5.1¢ a mile. An average small SUV on the Rocky Mountains's average gas ($4.47 a gallon) costs about $199 a month for the same driving.
Can I charge a LYRIQ on a regular 120 V outlet in Ogden?
At 38 miles a day, most of the year: a 120 V outlet adds about 44 miles in 12 hours on an average day, but about 32 in the coldest week, so it can fall a little behind then. A 240 V outlet fills it from 10% in about 6 hours.
Is it greener to drive electric on Ogden's grid?
Yes, more than most places. Ogden's grid (WECC Northwest) is 18% cleaner than the US average, so a LYRIQ charged on it makes 67% less CO₂ than an average small SUV.
