Electric motors produce heat, too, but not nearly as much.

Mine is water cooled with an automotive radiator.
Water never gets more than lukewarm.
So no good for cab heating.

I'd hope not. A decent car heater with an IC engine can produce the
equivalent of about 5 kW of heat.


If you run the separate cab heater, it knocks around 25% off range.
Plus range is reduced anyway in cold weather, the batteries don't like it.
I'm not too bad, it's garaged in an underground garage.
