I bought a new (to me) car, a 2018 BMW i3. It's electric, with a range
extender (a small 650cc gas engine that charges the battery when
needed). It's a perfect little city car for me, as I work from home and
mostly run errands around town. We have a 3rd row SUV for snow trips and
larger groups.
In the charging menu, you tell it when you leave in the morning, and it
makes sure you're fully charged by then. It has an option marked
"climate control", when checked, it make sure the interior is at the temperature you set when your departure time comes.
If only it could turn on the seat warmers, too. :)
