We have the shortest average commute of any state in the country. Our towns get pretty dense, then nothing
Yeah, dont drive down I-80 during a blizzard... doesnt mean that a EV for Laramie or Cody or Sheridan, or even Gillette/Casper as a commuter car isnt practical. The only reason an electric bike isnt practical is due to the cold, but there are enough people with DUIs that make it a thing anyways.
Let's see how good the batteries hold up to wind chill of -20.
Wind chill and heat index does not matter for vehicles, the actual temp matters. They arent having to deal with water making a phase change for temperature control, unlike humans.
Unlike gas cars for which one can plug in electric block heaters, batteries all lose charge because of electrochemical sensitivity to cold.
...why the fuck do you think you cant have a battery heater?
And garaging happens because crackheads steal copper, so you keep your home charger in your garage. Not that big of a deal because a garage is cheap to build here.

Then you get the slush kicked up by big rigs coating your windshield. We had to pull off I-80 a few times to clear it off.
