Prius/Lexus hybrid still has batteries. I don't know how they heat them. It might be a case of not using much battery for 2 months either way. The big advantage of a plug-in in cold weather is that you can heat the car using house current while you're having breakfast, and drive off to work in a toasty warm car.
