Naturally, you should follow whatever specifications come with your scooter, but this is partly up to engineering specifications and partly up to local winter weather.

My point was primarily about that snow and ice does not inherently render bicycles and scooters unusable, it's a matter of actually maintaining their infrastructure.

I’m talking about temperature, not snow and ice. Most batteries aren’t rated for temps in the far negatives, and the northern states routinely see -40 degree temps.
