The question isn’t “if” this will happen but “when and how”. In the USA our entire electrical grid is exposed to this risk, regardless if its created naturally by a Sun flare (Carrington Event) or nuclear detonation. It’s estimated it will take $100 Billion to secure the grid, but if the grid fails they expect a 90% population die-off within the first 6 months (was 12) of where the event affects (see “The Road” book and movie).

Expert: 90% of U.S. Population Could Die if a Pulse Event Hits the Power Grid

When a large electromagnetic pulse (EMP) or geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) event hits the electric power grid—which, according to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.)

So having an operable vehicle with an extended range to get the hell out of dodge isn’t a bad plan, just in case…
