How does this work? I have AC in my car but as soon as I turn the engine off it won't work anymore, gradually getting hotter. I don't suppose people just leave their engine running?
Tesla air conditioning is run by electric motor (since, no gas engine) so the owner turns on “dog mode” via the touch screen, and the computer keeps the car cool.
Edit: Just to be clear, this is a separate electric motor from the main drive motor(s). So you stay cool at stoplights. 🙂
