Tu wycinek z instrukcji USA - po włączeniu My View - wskaźnik temperatury silnika i układu EV:

• Coolant Temp – Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating temperature, the level indicator will be white and will be in the normal range (between H and C). If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the normal range, the level indicator will change to red to indicate that the engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, turn off the vehicle and let the engine cool. The thermometer indicator next to the gauge will illuminate in blue or white to indicate the following (not available for Energi vehicles): • Blue thermometer - This indicates that the hybrid system is not warm enough to allow EV operation. The gasoline engine will typically run continuously when the indicator is blue.

Note: During silent key start mode, the thermometer indicator will be blue, but the gasoline engine will not run. This is the result of the vehicle computer allowing the engine to be cooler during the silent key start period. This is normal operation and does not indicate a problem with your vehicle. After the first engine start the indicator will turn white when the gasoline engine is warm enough to turn off.
• White thermometer - This indicates that the hybrid system is warm enough to allow EV operation. If the vehicle operates on battery power long enough, it is possible that the gasoline engine may need to run to keep the system warm. In this case, the thermometer indicator will revert back to blue.


Wydaje mi się że sprzedawca mówiąc o dodatkowym ogrzewaniu miał na myśli najprawdopodobniej dogrzewanie z kolektora. Raczej wątpię by wersje USA i Europa różniły się mechanicznie - wręcz podejrzewam że są dokładnie identyczne poza oprogramowaniem i dostępnymi opcjami wyposażenia.
