You are asking the right questions, but I do not have the answers for you on that model. I own Hyundai Sonata and Prius Prime plugin hybrids of those two Prius Prime would be the one that you want. The only cold weather issue with that is that if you push the dash button for the Window Defrost the gas will kick on. If you set the normal heat setting to the defrost position it does not. You can preheat the cabin remotely on electric. As with all EVs though you will have a significant range decrease in cold weather.
No heat in the Hyundai in the winter without the gas engine warming up first 🙁 Damon ________________________________ From: EV <ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org> on behalf of Robert Bruninga via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> Sent: Friday, February 5, 2021 9:41 PM To: Electric Vehicle Discussion List <ev@lists.evdl.org> Cc: Robert Bruninga <bruni...@usna.edu> Subject: [EVDL] Ford Fusion Plugin Hybrid What kind of plugin hybrid is the 2017 Ford Fusion? Does it start up the gas engine when it is very very cold? IE, in Alaska? Does it have remote start (warm up on electric)? I was all ready to go with a Toyota RAV4 Prime, but they dont sell them in Alaska. And have never looked at any other plugin hybrid so am starting from scratch.
