Having said this I have charged many lithiums below this point in hobby use, both lifepo4 and lipo, and never had a problem as the act of charging at least at a sensible rate adds a few degrees anyway.
But if its genuinely colder than 0c dont charge. It will result in lithium plating instead of charging. Permanant damage. You can discharge down to -20C or so safely. If you must charge when its so cold then you can do it without damage at or below the 50h rate. That is apparently slow enough that plating doesent occur. Not tried by me... (wiki).

Seems EVs are very common in norway. Even the northern parts. So a warmng system/blanket as suggested previously seems to work just fine. As most EVs use them. Ant its probably not quite as cold daily as the extremes suggested.
what are SLA batteries?

Driven by taxation. And rebates. And a crazy lefty net zero goverment...
These appear to work great even in the north of your country.

If you gradually increase the temperature and do it slow enough the frog never actually decides to jump out of the pan. It just never notices the temperature increase is happening and it gets used to the temperature. And that jump moment never happens. Till its all too late.
But the other way around. I would suggest that anyone living there is the exact same thing in reverse. It makes no sense for a human to put up with that sort of suffering and cold when there are much better climates to live in elsewhere across a large planet. They may try and rationalise this after the event to justify "why" they live there. But its all basically nonsense. Living in that type of climate makes no rational sense.
