Another EV advantage...vehicles can be set (if so equipped) to maintain cabin temperature and protect vehicle occupants even when the car owner or driver leaves the vehicle, such as a quick store stop, etc. As Tesla points out, their large battery capacities allow the cabin temp to be maintained for hours if needed. As the Model 3 dash (above) shows, the screen announces that the mode is on and that the cabin temperature is being maintained (let's assume, yeah I know, that any dog rescuers will check before breaking a window). This is a very good idea that pet owners will appreciate. With their continued "over-air" updates, Tesla has further enhanced the Cabin Overheat Protection feature that was introduced several years ago. And no, gas-powered vehicles are not going to be left running (and polluting) to achieve the same result. Follow Tesla on Twitter for updates.
