Why the need for ancient history data challenge? You certainly know that it happens just by reading the current news.

It does happen and owners just have to be alert. Otherwise, you get to experience problems like those in Chicago.

Just like internal combustion engines, all have some limitations that users must consider. Fuel supply, availability, reliability. That goes for ICE or EV autos. The availability issue is more acute for EVs at this time due to limited availability sources. The problem is enhanced for EVs in frigid weather or power outages. You just have to allow for it, and consider alternatives.
