I live in a mixed rural/town area and most of my trips are quite short. My mileage is in the 40+ per gallon range.
So far as temperatures are concerned I don’t see them here as being particularly low but in the recent past I’ve driven in -3 degrees. No matter what the temperature, I have never experienced any difficulties starting, stopping or steering the car! I feel that the car is totally adaptable to al conditions and environments.
