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.
