    Maybe it’s not a big deal in warmer countries but for northern Europe it seems stupid as fuck

      Doesn’t Norway own more Tesla’s per capita than any other country? I’m not an expert, but that seems like a Northern European country. Is it a huge problem up there?

        I recall Norway has been giving very large tax cuts for purchases of EVs in general, funded by their oil money. I guess you’ll just see high concentration of Teslas there it being the most popular EV manufacturer afaik

      I live in central Europe (Germany) where it freezes every night in winter. Never had an issue, 3+ years of ownership.
