    Bullshit.

    Tesla forums and my own experience call bullshit on this.

    The 12v battery of my own M3 died less than 3 years in from sale in moderate to low cold temps in Canada (Only like -30c max)

      it’s because teslas are garbage cars made by californian techbros for californian techbros, not because EVs have more trouble in colder climates
