Electric cars are wonderful. I just see are too many logistical, infrastructure problems with them. Hydrogen is a much better solution.
The power drain to keep the batteries warm shouldn't be a whole lot. A small percentage of the overall power consumption.

If you happened to work at a building without heated parking, plugging the car in probobly would keep the batteries warm enough.

I think its hilarious that you mention logistical and infrastructure problems, then reccomend Hydrogen. Hydrogen is the one source that requires the most infrastructure and logistics change - Far more than simply electric vehicles.
