A quick google just showed that a Tesla's heater can run up to 36 hours if the car isn't moving. 10-12 hours total if super cold temps. They probably did fine.

ETA: Just read up some more on it. Apparently folks were using their seat heaters since they don't use nearly as much energy. They were fine.

Are you assuming that the batteries were fully charged when the cars got stuck on the rural section of an interstate highway?
