What happens if you get stranded in the cold in an EV?

An EV has several advantages of a gas or diesel powered car if you get stranded in cold weather.

  • First of all, you can usually start your day with a full charge. This means you are more prepared for unexpected events.
  • Second, when idling in an EV you aren’t burning “fuel” just to keep the car running.
  • Third, you can run the heater in your EV for many hours before you have to worry about running low on energy.
