Now, researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have identified an overlooked aspect of the problem: Storing lithium-ion batteries at below-freezing temperatures can crack some parts of the battery and separate them from surrounding materials, reducing their electric storage capacity
Stored in a heated, air conditioned, dehumidified, garage….with the appropriate tender on it all winter. My car does not have a very tough life (aside from dyno and drag strip beatings ).
