You've raised some good points about the battery charging and extreme temperatures.
But it's properly strange that it's only in Chicago where this has cropped up. What about places like parts of Canada? There's got to be some sort of natter about it happening there, too.
For Chicago, I think it was just the sheer number of vehicles involved. Suddenly is was taking all those EV 3 or 4 times the typical amount of time to charge.

[QUOTE=JNealCox;25881143][QUOTE=MichaelCarter;25880897]As I recall, in Sweden, they are obsessed with Teslas, and everything seemed to be OK when the low temperatures hit them.

Sweden has more educated EV drivers. You simply do not have every EV driver descending on scarce chargers and sitting there for hours waiting to charge to 100% SOC.
All of the Uber and Lyft drivers handled the cold day exactly like they handle a warm day and the calculus had changed.
