Afraid the range is roughly within spec, given expected battery degradation and the cold.I took it back into warranty and they kept telling me my battery SOH is within the limit. Is there a reason for a huge drop on my range? Should I get a 2nd opinion from another dealership. I barely can get a return trip to my work these days without low battery warnings.
I am sure there are forums possibly on this issue but I don't have time to search. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you everyone.
According to EV-database the range for a new Kia Soul 2016 (ie. no battery degradation) is 65 mi. / 105 km in the cold at highway speeds:

All details and specs of the Kia Soul EV (2014-2017). Compare price, lease, real-world range and consumption of every electric vehicle.

On the plus side the range estimate (GOM) on the Kia Soul is very reliable so if you can live with the annoying low battery reminder you'll be OK.
