I have read many articles on the subject and it appears that if you have all of your electronics unplugged and turned off most will survive an EMP. If your car is in the garage and grounded it will likely start afterwards. But the grid may be down so fill er up.

Those articles are mostly wrong. It’s impossible to predict what will and will not be damaged - though stuff plugged in will be more vulnerable.
