Interesting first post!!

No thanks, I wouldn't go anywhere with those temperatures in a motorhome.
My motorhome is winterised and heating works faultlessly, but I wouldn't want to rely on it for survival.
Lots of plastic on motorhomes and RV's which turns brittle and breaks in those temperatures.

Oh, and.

I am assuming that English is not your first language. I do not understand your post.
However, I wouldn’t take my van there in the first place. You need a specialised vehicle.

We would try and avoid such weather, note video shot in California so reference temp is 18F (Fahrenheit) so "only" -7C (Celsius)
We got caught in a freeze for several days/nights @ sub zero days & -10C, overnight travelling across Texas, highways clear but 20+ inches fell.
We we were in our UK Swift Kon-Tiki Coachbuilt which has pretty good insulation, not double floor, heating pretty much permanently running
once stopped, went through 2x11kg bottles. The external thermal windscreen cover makes a huge difference, we have a Taylormade.
That said a few weeks earlier we'd been in Kansas & Missouri @ 40C/104F and that was not much fun either. Cab AC no use & none in hab area.

We managed -27c in Norway.

Double floor EuraMobil with winter tyres and 4x2 drive

Most of the time on sites or parked near an LPG garage

Looking at the photo I would worry about any blocked vents.

We did -3 for three days but we were at a small CL site outside York for Karon's birthday and had EHU. Blown air furnace in the RV was used a lot. We also have Oodies and lots of fleece blankets.
Ours is not double glazed and we could tell.
Enjoyed being surrounded in freezing fog (remember January/February 2023).

It's not as bad as it looks. We done many winters in Ro at -20 -22 and driven on compacted snow. Just like the locals. Have the heater on 24/7 to prevent the water freeze, and have the boiler on couple of times a day even if not using the hot water. Works for us.

No wonder Englishmen stick to the mid-day sun.
