The Tesla Model Y has a device you won't find in the other Teslas. This device is a heat pump, and it's a super efficient way of heating a cabin. Many electric cars use resistive heaters, as they cannot rely on the hot coolant from a combustion engine to heat the air for the occupants. This resistive heat draws energy from the battery, meaning cold weather range can be severely reduced for electric cars, unlike heating a gasoline power car. The Tesla Model Y has a clever trick to dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed to heat the cabin. Is the Tesla Model Y good in cold weather? Watch the video to learn all about how heat pumps work!
