The climate system and especially the fans can use a lot of energy. My Volvo EX40 has an extended range mode that specifically only mentions reduced climate control capacity when enabled.
But during very cold temperatures you can probably expect up to 30% reduction in range depending on battery and make/model etc. Not only due to climate control but probably including it.
