The dealer was telling me to use the heated seats and the heated steering wheel over the air-heat to conserve energy if I wanted. Playing around with everything later tonight, my wife put the heated seats on high and the estimated miles went up about 5-6 miles... which got me thinking... Generally I drive alone in my commute, so what if I left the rear and/or passenger heated seats on all the time? Would I actually get more miles? Is there any risk or downside to leaving them on if they do indeed give more miles? And lastly, why does using them give more miles?
