Why Does an Electric Car Lose Range on Cold Highway Trips?

My electric car’s estimated range drops noticeably during winter highway drives, even when I start with a full battery. I understand that cold weather can affect performance, but I’d like to know how much comes from the battery itself versus cabin heating and sustained high speeds.

For people who drive EVs in cold climates, which conditions have the biggest effect on cold-weather highway range, and how do you make a realistic estimate before a longer trip?
