It can make a huge difference. I noticed articles this year talking about how bad EV range is in very hot weather (>95F).
At first, I thought this was implausible. Then I looked at the data on some days where I had a lot of short trips interspersed with lots of cabin overheat protection and preconditioning. If I extrapolated from that, I'd have horrible range! I never noticed, because range never matters on days like that.
On a road trip in the same conditions, range has been pretty good.
