I have a 2023 PHEV and the heat pump seems fast and efficient! (and I live in CANADA... :-)

I also have a 2023 Outlander PHEV, and love it! Although we have not had temperatures as cold as talked about by any means (the average winter temperature thus year has been just above freezing) we do get a few cold nights. I have never had any problem with my car not starting. I do plug it in...

Here, (In Canada) the high octane fuels have no ethanol added.... which is what I am going for... I spend so little in gas I don't mind wasting a bit of money to protect the fuel system ...

Regular gasoline has a shelf life of three to six months. On the other hand, organic-based Ethanol can lose its combustibility in just one to three months due to oxidation and evaporation Ethanol degrades into methane

Im concerned about stale fuel causing problems in the tank, the lines, the injectors.etc...

I have been topping off only about every 6 months, but I always buy the highest octane premium ethanol free gas I can find.... Loving the fuel saving I am getting! almost all daily trips are under the range. Even in winter (Canad) a full charge averages around 65kms.
