Charged EVs

SEPTEMBER 27, 2021

In an EV, while using the HVAC won’t detract from the maximum output of the traction motor, it does still demand energy from the battery, so there will be a hit to range. Heat pumps have two huge advantages: They can operate in both directions and they can transport more heat than the energy required to operate them.
