Sorry, I don't know.
Why not try an experiment with a laptop? Laptop batteries have built in
BMSes, which usually track the Wh into and out of the battery, passing that
info on to the OS. They're easily chilled in
I thought this question was banal. But, so far, everyone is speculating.
Let me put it in a more abstract form:
Experiment A.
1. Charge a li-ion battery, starting at voltage V1 at temp T1 with
amount W1 kWh to voltage V2.
2. Cool it to temp T2.
3. Discharge it at rate A amps, where A is low
I'm sure that if you kept your Leaf inside a warm garage anytime you
were not driving it, it's cold weather range would be better than if you
park it outside. (However, it may not be as high as it's normal warm
weather range, especially if you use the resistive cabin air heater.)

I'm not sure about the newer models, but definitely no battery heater
(or cooler) for the 2011 model.
2013 Leaf has (four) resistance heaters inside the main battery case.
They turn on if the temp gets below freezing.
No active cooling in
