**Reduced Cranking Power**: Cold temperatures slow down chemical reactions in batteries, reducing their power and making it harder to start the engine.
**Increased Energy Demand**: Heaters and defrosters increase the load on the battery during cold weather, requiring a healthy battery for reliable performance.
**Capacity Reduction**: Batteries can lose up to 60% of their strength in extreme cold, making good battery health essential.
