I haven't collected my M3P yet so don't know the answer to this but thought I'd ask.
1. I get free charging at work so don't intend to routinely charge at home.
2. I leave for work each morning at the same time.
What I'd like to do is have the car pre-condition to be warmed up by 7am each morning (interior and battery). I don't really care how much SoC this uses.
Can I do this if the car isn't plugged in ? I'm talking about this being set to automatically start, I don't want to be manually turning it on each day.
From the manual it says "Note : If your vehicle is not plugged into a charger, Scheduled departure will not precondition the cabin or battery"
so it seems not ?
but are there other methods, such as TeslaFi or Stats ?
Or is it the case that it needs the additional power from a charging unit to be able to fully pre-con?
I've had a quick search and found a few threads but.... it's not too clear, at least to me!
