You'll take your chances with the Prius going into that? All smart people aren't even taking their chances if that's a possibility. Getting into dumb situations is a great way to die in any vehicle. If you're stuck for 2 days in the snow, you're a maroon.
Last winter in Virginia that exact situation happened. Have seen similar reported before. My wife was stuck on an interstate in Kansas in I think '92 for more than 20 hours.
Then your wife was stupid and so was everyone stuck for a day in virginia. And neither of those were two days. So you want to keep making things up?
OK, a day. How does that make them stupid? There was nowhere to go.
You guys appear not to be in the loop but we tend to know when large snow events are coming. And if they are we also have very ancient and tried and tested ways of staying warm even without a cabin being warm. Blankets and portable food were invented a very long time ago. This is a stupid concern. If you got stuck it's probably because you were being stupid. And if you're cold it's because you were unprepared.
Nope, just saying if I had been driving a couple hundred miles in severely cold weather, came upon a pileup that closed the interstate for a very long time, I would be much less concerned in a Prius than in your Tesla. Looking up longest traffic jams in history shows that people have been stuck for at least 24 hours before. And when it's over I'll be driving on while you'll be looking for a charging station.
So those many thousands stuck in Virginia last winter were all stupid? By the way if it had been me I would've been prepared. I bought a Prius.
Yes, they were all stupid of they were ever cold. That's a total lack of preparation or attention. If there is snow, you keep adequate warmth and food in the trunk. This is 101 level stuff.
So it's -5° outside and you're by yourself but wait, you've got a blanket! Meanwhile my climate control is keeping me warm.
That stretch of I-95 has conditions that make it susceptible to ice forming. Something a lot of travelers wouldn't know.
And we just established that my cabin is warm,too.
Who cares? It's winter. There is warmth and food in the trunk. Period. Or you're an idiot.

When your battery dies it'll take you a week to get it moved?
Why thank you. Glad you're finally acknowledging the superiority of the Prius over the Tesla.
Be sure not to lock yourself in the trunk.
Given how stupid Prius owners are, they're the only ones that might have a need for three days of cabin warmth instead of just two. Take your Tard Win if you want.
