Read your own link more carefully. If I'm taking my car on a short commute so that it never gets up to temperature, then maybe, the absolute worst case scenario, I might suffer as much range loss as the best case scenario for an EV. But when the engine is at temperature and remains at such (for example, I'm taking a long-distance drive where range actually matters), the range loss on a gas car is minuscule, whereas the EV car still suffers significant range loss.
