Northern Minnesota often sees those temperatures. And if it's a real medical emergency, you could well be dead by the time anyone can get to you - IF you have cell service to make a call. If they do make it to you, you will probably be airlifted by helicopter. Making a a 100+ mile trip, would be just for a clinic visit or even to pick up a prescription, which I did last Saturday for my Wife.
100+ miles is fine for most any EV. My bolt during the winter was still able to get 200mi+ at 70mph in sub zero F weather. With a home charger it's fine. It's road trips that would push further. I've found charging adds maybe 25% time to long trips. But that doesn't seem to be the use case you're referring to.
