The US rockies region get to negative F all the time. The area around Antero Reservoir gets to -20F -30F all the time. Winter Park overnight parking is commonly around -10F overnight.
Camping in a car is not an issue at all. Living in a van or an RV is an entirely a different game. For that you need from 2 to 4 kilowatts of heat, for days on end. If you let the temps inside drop below freezing even once, you are dead, all the plumbing is frozen and batteries are out of commission until you warm them up.
Solar is useless in winter. Finding shore power is hard.
There are solved problems in van life and unsolved ones. The heat is solved with gas/diesel. The AC is not solved at all.
As far as the range, I drive a disel van with a range of 400+ miles. It's okay but often times I wish I had more.
Forget it, EV RV is a dumb idea and is never coming. It does not mean they won't be selling one. There's always a sucker to buy.
I've slept in my Model S a number of times at -20°C at 1000 m altitude in the Dovre region of Norway. It's not merely possible it is perfectly practical and plenty warm enough while not really using very much range.
One does not need heat to sleep in a car (slept dozens of nights at ski resorts). This does not mean that you can heat up a van/rv with electricity.
(I have lived for a month in a van in Montana/Colorado/Wyoming. Camped in a Forester for months all over. Lived and worked in a van for 30 days in PNW in spring).
