Packard offered a battery charger outfit
for urban winter commuters. An undersize generator pulley was also available for taxi, police, and other adverse condition service.
Battery rental, charging services, and service trucks with exchange/rental batteries used to be common. Batteries are better today, and vehicles have much more robust and better regulated charging systems. Automated cold start systems prevent inept operators from running down their batteries and wearing out their starters.

Battery charging aside, it's always a good idea to drive a car for half an hour or more, or ten miles or more, any time it is started. More is better, especially in colder weather. The benefits are many.
