Cold-weather range, heat pump and charging are treated as core data, not secondary notes.

Battery chemistry, supplier and architecture are visible next to the normal buying numbers.

Derived values are labelled, so raw data and computed signals stay easy to separate.

Compact EV comparison, worldwide: real range, charging reality and battery tech with sourced, dated numbers.
