An advanced energy-saving heat pump system comes as standard. Reliably operating in a broad range of temperatures, the system is designed to highly utilise residual heat from surroundings, the powertrain, passenger compartment and even the batteries. It enhances the thermal efficiency and reduces energy loss whether heating or cooling. Therefore, the low-temperature driving range is increased.
