He explains that 13 percent of the cases with starting difficulties are electric cars, while the remaining 87 percent are fossil cars. Setrom says that 23 percent of the cars in Norway are electric cars. This means that electric cars are almost twice as good as fossil cars in the cold.

It means: "..... almost twice as good as fossil cars in the cold" - - - when it comes to starting difficulties.

Which Btw is not at all surprising in light of the one small battery a petrol car depends on to start. What IS surprising for me: That according to this EV's DO have starting difficulties in the cold. As even "nearly double as good" is exaggerated, together with the age differential you mention (older petrol cars often have older batteries too): Where is the difference when you compare a new EV with a new petrol car in that single reliability respect?

What it definitely does not say: That EV's are better in the cold. Traction? Reliability in extreme cold (other than starting)? Etc.
