Electric = good in most climates. Electric = bad in extremely cold environments.
This might be true for most batteries, but not for electric engines.
I love in a city's who's top complaint about their electric vehicles is how they don't get near as much distance in cold weather.
Again, that's on the batteries. Electric engines even work in space, while gasoline-powered engines start having troubles at -40°C (that's -40°F, fun fact).
