You don't seem to understand because you're completely ignoring the fact that it doesn't fail in extreme cold if you precondition the battery first. Again, I was able to charge my car during the Texas freeze last year because of preconditioning. That's literally why EVs are built with the ability to heat the batteries when it gets cold.

So first you preheat the cabin to release the charge lid latch so that it will open after freezing shut.

Then assuming were accepting Musks word that there are no issues why did it not charge at all in over three hours for this guy?

According to all of you it just needs to heat it up and then it will charge (albeit at a slower rate if not preconditioned).

And Tesla swapped out his car so clearly they think somethings wrong.

• this was a good35 degrees colder than the Texas storm

Its not that I dont understand batteries. Its that I dont understand why you blindly accept that excuse from a known liar in spite of evidence to the contrary.
