in my experience (we've gotten down to about -15C this week) it's a non-issue. Even on a regular 120v outlet. Car is preconditioned, warm, and has a full tank (battery) when I hop in
Even now what I have is better for me. I wake up to a fully pre-heated, defrosted car with a full charge. Costs about 1/4 of the price per mile. I actually wait less than I did on my ICE - no petrol station visits and no waiting for it to defrost.
I would also direct people to read the thread of peoples experience of EV ownership in Calgary over the cold spell: https://www.reddit.com/r/Calgary/comments/194yg8x/how_are_yo...

You don’t see this angle reported in the news.
Charging on the street in subzero temperatures isn't likely to work with 120v.
