I live rural Massachusetts fairly high elevation and temperatures at times can go below 0°F. I can't find much specs on how bolt manages the battery in cold temperatures. And can't find info on battery temperature limits for charging/discharging. I read rapid charging Li-ion in general below 41°F the charge rate has to be reduced. Does bolt do this? Even reduced charging at or below 32°F can cause severe permanent damage to Li-ion batteries. Also read that discharging below 0°F can damage battery because C rating reduced at cold temperatures.
In another post here someone said the bolt has a battery heater? Does anybody know or have info on how the battery heater works in the bolt? Is it a hydronic and heat the batteries liquid cooling lines, how many watts is the heater? Is battery always kept warm when plug in charging and not charging? What about un plugged or driving is it heated?
