Another thought; the engine has a lot of residual heat.
Keep the water tank in the garage, connect it to the secondary cicuit of a heat exchanger that gets fed from the coolant system and run the pumps on both the car and your water tank to harvest it.
Next morning, when the car is freezing cold and your storage tank inside the garage is warmer, do the same again to preheat the car...
