A screenshot from the morning news -- even a big 4-WD Tesla won't help much if you are inexperienced of driving on slippery roads, or have changed to summer tyres too early :)

Just now we have freezing temperatures again and snow is starting to fall.  Sigh.

Ouch!

I've heard that Tesla sold in Norway (or in northern countries) has a diesel engine to generate the electric power to heat the batteries in winter.  Does this wrecked one have one as well?

It appears to be a minor collision. That's probably the driver chatting on the road. Then there's the similarly stricken semi-articulated lorry in the background.

Tesla cars have no room for a diesel engine. The battery uses its own power to keep itself warm.

Thank you, Ian, for the correction.  So, the battery life will be shorter in cold countries.
