They don't want that expensive battery to go over about 90 degrees. (hmmm, what temperature is that phone in my pocket, or worse yet, the phone that's painful to pick up after I leave it in the car?) And damage can occur at low temps, I think GM turns on the battery heaters to keep it over 14 degrees. Early Nissan Leaf didn't have active battery temperature management, I don't know if newer ones have it. The moral to that story is not to buy a used Leaf out of Arizona.
