so 12 hours in mild cold with a factory new battery in the winter sun you burn 25% idling for warmth. If when buying an EV Im curious if they have a death/injury waiver in the terms of sale. 2% idle discharge per hour is kind of a high risk if this is your used go to work car. Then again, theres no exhaust to kill you either, Id guess more people annually would succumb to exhaust than dead battery hypothermia
