Wait, so you can't use the air? You know, one of the major comfort features in a car? What a ripoff.

Running the heat can be energy draining because you don't have a hot engine to draw air from. Using the heated seats is much more efficient but of course less comfortable in cold weather.

You can use the AC is fine and you get pretty close to the rated mileage, but the heated air is a bigger drain.
