    Yeah this has happened to me once, so I think I just defrost the car ahead of time now. Don’t recall what I did to get in that one time — probably just scraped some ice, waited a minute for it to defrost, or used a different door? It’s a con, but carries very little weight on my pro/con list. I like the frameless look and would make the same tradeoffs as Tesla did. It’s that insignificant of a problem IME

      Maybe it’s not a big deal in warmer countries but for northern Europe it seems stupid as fuck

        Doesn’t Norway own more Tesla’s per capita than any other country? I’m not an expert, but that seems like a Northern European country. Is it a huge problem up there?

          I recall Norway has been giving very large tax cuts for purchases of EVs in general, funded by their oil money. I guess you’ll just see high concentration of Teslas there it being the most popular EV manufacturer afaik

        I live in central Europe (Germany) where it freezes every night in winter. Never had an issue, 3+ years of ownership.
