I’m one year in being an EV owner - in europe, not in a metropole but in belgium so there’s still some density of population.
Relative cold had anecdotal impact. Maybe when going under -10 it’s becoming an issue but so far no impact.
Charging infrastructure is getting there - still no rapid chargers in wallonia but I’ve learned that I don’t need them either. I’m able to live my life by charging once a week or so in my home charger. Admittedly I work from home 3 days a week and I use trains 2 days to get to work.
For holidays we like going to France where they seem to have an abundance of fast chargers and it’s been a breeze beside an increased frequency of stops to charge for 15 minutes.
So yeah it’s all anecdotal but in European settings it’s perfectly fine.
