For short trips I started to use seat heating instead of cabing heating, but I have a feeling like the recuperation limit is not moving up while driving like this. Might be the result of cabin heating being...

    Scheduled battery preheating vs. battery degradation

    As a new Tesla owner I am wondering about scheduled pre-heating of the battery. I understand that with a cold battery, regenerative breaking and probably acceleration is limited. What I don't know is how driving with cold battery influences the long term battery degradation? (in my daily 40km...
