So I got the limited regen warning for the first time the other day (in coastal San Diego!) and I was wondering why they don't just use the regen energy to heat the battery.
I suppose you'd have to run a huge volume of coolant over a 70kW resistive heater to keep it from melting or maybe it's bad for the battery to heat it up too fast.
The lows here are about 45 degrees right now and it takes about 15 miles to get full regen.
