  1. No you cannot. There is no electric heater. Cabin heating is from the petrol engine, like a normal petrol car. Makes it impossible to run these on electricity only on winter (turning on the heater, will turn on the petrol engine). It also prevents them from preheating while parked. (You can remote turn on the engine with the key-fob, and as with any petrol car, when it has idled long enough, warm air starts flowing). So I would not recommend these if you live in a cold climate, and drive a lot of short trips, hoping to do those on electricity.

  2. Just so you are aware, it heats cabin by the petrol engine only. So you can pretty much forget running short trips on electricity during winter time and you have to wait for the engine to get warm to get any cabin heating. Major downer in cold climate. (I'm from Norway, but I guess Canada is at least as cold).

  3. Very important (that was briefly mentioned) is that these cars do not have electric heaters. Heating of the cabin is via the petrol engine only! Meaning if you live in a colder climate and you travel short distances a lot, you will not be able to run on anything but petrol and will have a cold car until engine gets warm. To a large degree reducing the point of having a PHEV in the first place. It also prevents the app from preheating the car (only way is to remote-start the engine with the key-fob, guzzling petrol while it idles to heat up the cabin). So I think Hyundai dropped the ball there, but if you live in more temperate climates, it shouldn't be that much of an issue.
