Starting the engine cold is a critical phase in fuel consumption, with the engine consuming the largest amount of fuel at this point due to greater internal friction and the high viscosity of the engine oil as long as it is still cold. In all, therefore, such additional heating involves an increase in fuel consumption of up to one liter.
