When not plugged in to an EVSE and about to do a short journey in frosty conditions it would be good to be able to defrost the car (essential no matter how short the trip) without taking the hit to pre-heat the HV battery, which probably uses more energy than it saves over a short trip. However, I can see that the greatest benefit from preconditioning must coming in the first few minutes of driving when I presume the battery management is using energy to bring the HV up to optimum temperature anyway.
Thoughts from those more technical than me or in colder areas with experience?
