    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)

      “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”

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