Besides the obvious cold temperature that affect the batteries, it seems that everything else (incline, tires, air resistance, road conditions, etc) affect EVs disproportionately? Never heard of an ICEV loosing 50% range on a full tank because of bad conditions?

Things like heating are a simple one.
ICE vehicles use the heat of the engine and just pump air into the car from near the hot engine.
Electric vehicles actually have to heat your car like a space heater would heat a room. So it’s electric that wouldn’t normally be used while a gas powered car is using the wasted energy it made just by running.
