[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5381248, member: 24302"] A Toyota Prius runs its climate control through its big hybrid battery. The gas engine will top the battery off about every 15 minutes running about a minute. It'll use less than a gallon every 8 hrs. He mentioned the cheaper Tesla Model S doesn't have a heat pump. So to get the capability you have to have the very expensive model. It's beyond what a lot of people can afford. A base Prius brand new is about $27k. It sips gas and you can buy an awful lot of gas for the difference in price between it and a Tesla. [/QUOTE]
