Most people aren't road tripping in their electric vehicle every day. If you don't understand how temperature affects battery chemistry, capacity, and charging I don't understand how you can even be in this conversation.
They can't road trip ever if the vehicle doesn't have sufficient range. I don't understand how you can even be in this conversation when you don't understand basic principles like this.
I understand how it affects all of these. It doesn't cause any of it to "not charge properly". EVs are used in the coldest places in the world with no major charging problems.
My wife has a Nissan leaf with 60 mile range for commuting, I have an old gas hatchback we can take for road trips. Before going off about how rich and privileged this setup is, the Leaf was purchased for 6k, 4k after tax rebates. Hatchback was purchased for 6k 9 years ago.
I'm glad that works out for you.
