Here is a video of the comforts of remote car start..
This video was shot on February 12th, 2022 during another cold snap our city was suffering.
The temperature was a cold -25C or -18F. I know, I should have plugged in the car on that day. You can hear the cold as the motor starts to turn. But hey, the battery has some serious cranking power, so I was spared this time around.
Here is the YouTube video.
After about 8 minutes of running, the steering wheel was a comfortable 20 degrees C / 68 Fahrenheit. The seat started to get warmer as well. Actually, it seems to get warmer when one actually sits on the seat. I think there are sensors which detect a person sitting.
