That’s weird. I put gas in my car and it started right up during the recent freezing weather.

I chose to leave the car plugged in and get a ride back to my house

Reminds me of my first car, a Triumph Spitfire. Mostly the latter part, viz. getting a ride back home.

And we all know what happened to British Leyland.

“I have no other vehicle, so I decided to see if it just needed more time. Hours went by, and with only 19 miles left to empty, I chose to leave the car plugged in and get a ride back to my house,”

Several years ago, we were camping at -7. A couple of the cars froze and wouldn’t start. A quick jump start and off we went.

Just saying

Notice that the article focused on Tesla, when the problem affects ANY electric vehicle.

The Left has been after Musk ever since he acquired Twitter.

Although I think it’s a design flaw that a vehicle which has presumably been driven for a while has batteries which are too cold to charge.

I don’t see how Domenick Nati has a valid complaint with Tesla. He is simply complaining about the science or maybe the physics in electric batteries. They simply do not like very cold weather nor very hot weather.
Hmm, Does that mean Domenick Nati is denying science?

Perhaps, but it won’t be my garage. That I know for sure. 🙂

Auto company executives are privately admitting that the vast majority of consumers simply do not want to own or depend upon EVs. The huge capital investments in EVs made by these companies are not likely to return a profit. Ford and GM are likely to become owned subsidiaries of the US government kept open to placate unions and Democrat enclaves.

Put it in the garage and buy a couple of propane heaters. Get the temp up to within operating range and it’ll charge.

That said...yeah, not as advertised.

Ultimately, he had to cancel all his holiday plans because he had no way to travel.

No rental cars? Planes? Trains? Buses? Relatives?

He never learned to improvise in an emergency? How did he grow into an adult?

EV’s have the same problems that they had 100 years ago. The only difference is the EV’s are wrapped in better looking shells.

The irony of all those electric vehicles towing generators.
