Great job and nice to see you two collaborating! Thankfully the cold is not something most of us have to worry too much about in Australia. I chose not to get the heat pump or heated back seats in my Polestar and I didn’t even want the sunroof because of the heat. Although a couple of times this winter, I did get a warning message from my Polestar saying the battery was cold and that performance could be affected.
Very true!
what would be super interesting is a look at living with an EV when you dont have a driveway , charging options ect . Fabulous content by the way !
When I buy an EV you’ll be seeing just that as we don’t have a driveway.
Perhaps a sillly question, but is there any technology being developed to address this issue? E.g. Just as I understand EVs now have cooling systems for the batteries (which were absent from the Nissan Leafs), is a heating / warming system required for colder weather?
I'm not an expert, but I think it's possible. Resistance in electrical circuits generate heat, which can be used to condition the batteries. As a matter of fact I think that's how battery management systems prepare batteries during fast charging. I'm probably getting a lot of things wrong here, so you might have to take this comment with a little grain of salt
