Colorado cold isn't like Toronto cold. I recall that when I lived in Colorado I slept with the window open in winter.I am one of those. If its warmer than 0°C i walk in T-Shirt and jeans. but i like driving in 22°C
I am surprised that you say that. Having range mode on prevents preheating the battery. So I leave Range Mode off and that allows me to preheat battery and cabin when plugged in. Plus I rarely drive so far that I would be concerned about running out of range.Here are some of the tips that I use for long winter trips:
...
4) Enable Range Mode, which limits power to heat and A/C (and uses dual motor drive more efficiently).

Make sure the louvers are not turned all the way (which will block all the air). Other than that mine seem to be fine so you might want to contact the Service Centre to have them check it out.
Me too. I just do what I do in other cars--keep a blanket to throw over my legs. Much more convenient than a coat because you can shift it easily. The console-less centre makes a perfect place for it when not in use.I found that my feet can get chilly on long drives in cold weather. i think the automatic setting doesn't always put enough air towards the floor when the cabin reaches a steady state. So I manually crank up the fan speed and make sure air is directed to the floor, at least periodically, to keep my tootsies warm enough....In other cars I have had, heating air was always directed mainly to the floor, not out the dash vents.
Well, the high was 17ºF yesterday and the low was -2ºF last night so windows-open season ended long ago for me; you must be acclimated to much more cold than I am. But, no, -2ºF (-19ºC) probably isn't very cold by Toronto standards. And the fifteen inches of snow a couple of days ago likely isn't much compared to Canada (or northern USA) but it took me nine hours of shoveling to clear my long driveway.Colorado cold isn't like Toronto cold.

I need to try this, thanks. We have a love/hate relationship with the heater. We drive for an hour or so perfectly comfortable (outside temperature "somewhat cold" but, let's assume, consistent), and then all of a sudden we get cold feet. My hunch is that cold air is being introduced because the temperature sensor has gone 1 degree over the set temperature.
We have been resorting to cranking up the cabin temperature (easy to do from central screen of course ...) rather than increasing fan speed. (We have the Climate set to feet-only the majority of the time).
Looking forward to seeing if faster fan speed suits us better
