How far can a Sierra EV AT4 / Denali go in a Stockton winter?

Stockton's winters are mild: about 392 miles on a typical January day (48°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around December 23, 47°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 5% of its 410-mile rating.

About $192 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at California's average home electricity rate of 33.6¢/kWh: about 16.6¢ a mile. A gas Sierra on California's average gas ($6.03 a gallon) costs about $423 a month for the same driving.
