Default Another thing about electric cars

Much less wasteful than trying to heat up the whole car interior surely.

Heating something that one is in contact with is a very effective way
of using a small amount of heat. Motorcyclists use heated jackets and
there certainly isn't much spare electricity available on a 'bike.
