You can pre-condition PHEVs too. Wouldn’t wanna miss getting into a cozy car in winter.
Not this one – It relies on the old fasioned way! No PTC heater, rather it starts the engine at high tickover – coolant runs past a bypass valve HEX in the exhaust which heats quickly and provides heat and engine shut off after 5-10m, Repeat.
How do you pre-cool it then?
Open the windows or again the old fashioned way of starting and select AC and come back 5 min later! If I think on, Ill show you the app, with most remote options in light grey/ non operable, even arse coolers aren’t availabe remotely.
Oof. 🙁
That’s how mine looks. Got so used to it, would not want to be without it.
Brydo, you drop to “plus” after 6 months, which then is going to last for 3 years. Which, imho, is good enough – Pro really doesn’t offer anything of value, while costing more than 3 times more than plus.
edit: for clarity, i’ve sent this post 3 days or so ago, had a critical error when sending, appeared double now. Not quite sure what’s going on with me browser.
