So unfortunate it behaves like an inefficient gas car 24/7 when it's below freezing out.

It was one of only 2 vehicles in it's class (EV with a range extender), which was what I wanted, but being Canadian I wouldn't get the benefits half the year.

The other was the BMW i3 REx, I nearly bought one until I found out AC problems can somehow cost 5 figures to repair, effectively totalling the car.

I just gave up and bought a full EV.

You can turn that setting off. (Don't feel bad, it took me two years to find the setting.)
