The 50 km for the in cabin heater is because when I have the temp set in the cabin to 18.5 degrees and fan speed 3, the range said 300km, when I turned it off the range went to 350km so the car is saying I will lose around 50 km of range if I keep the heater on the whole 300km trip.
Huh okay that seems like a lot. I only lose about 10km or so when I have the heat turned on. Perhaps my car has a heat pump and yours doesn't? Not sure if that might be the explanation.
Yea, that's a big reason I went with the mid range EV6 since the base model has a resistive heater.
