Battery heating.

[Rayman]

I know there is battery cooling but does anyone think there will be battery heating.
When it is 14° or so outside i get over 5kwh but when its cold it can be half that.
It would make a big difference in range being able to maintain battery temp.

I'm sure there's an post on here about a manual battery setting, applied in the UK as an optional and at-your-own-risk update. I think @Mike may have posted about this. I also thought there was a built in battery warming function that requires no user intervention. No doubt an expert will be along shortly...

Maybe the reason we get low m/kWh from cold is because the HV battery is being used to heat itself up ?

I have the battery heating update. It hasn’t yet worked for me in the UK.

Not worth having the car updated in my opinion. Even if the dealer would let you!
