Just get a jeep snorkle
2 comments

What happens when you you start floating?

I guess water propulsion... and a rudder?

You need to get an armored jeep then
A decent welder should be able to turn out a trailer hitch <=> outboard motor bracket in under 15 minutes. It's not like you'll need much more than a modest fishing outboard to get through flooded spots.
jeep snorkels are for air intakes for engines. electric cars don't have air intakes. they have air cooling for batteries... I suppose you could snorkel those.
Depends on the EV. Some of them have liquid cooling for their battery pack.
All major production EVs do. About the only exception I'm aware of is the first generation Nissan Leaf. I don't know if they've since changed.

Toyota uses air cooling (from the cabin) for their hybrid batteries, as do others.
