I have a 2016 S75
My car parks outside and I live in Phoenix AZ. It’s plugged in at night to a Tesla home wall charger.
Past week or so it’s been winter weather here, with the lows around 45 degrees. I’ve been waking up and trying to pre-heat my car, so I can drive without the regen limit.
I thought to preheat the car, that meant turning on the climate control. So I’ve been doing that for 5-15 min prior to departing, though that hasn’t preheated the car to around the regen limit
In addition, I’ve tried charging the car a little bit more in the morning, again 5-15 min, that too hasn’t preheated enough to remove the limitation.
What’s the most effective way to preheat the car battery to avoid this? I live by the Scottadale supercharger, so yesterday the charging took forever because the battery was still cold when I got there.
Thanks
Sam
