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)
Teslas are not the only EVs. They're also not the best EVs.
"Computers are pretty good for gaming"
"Nuh-uh, I saw a bunch of people complaining that they can't play games on a Mac. And I had a computer once that wouldn't play Breath of the Wild"
Also, this is definitely a "...but sometimes!": https://piped.video/watch?v=GiYO1TObNz8
it's because teslas are garbage cars made by californian techbros for californian techbros, not because EVs have more trouble in colder climates
