The ability to precool (or preheat) the car from an app on your phone is one of the biggest things I miss about having an electric car.

Yes that would be a definate bonus. I have heated seats in my polo but they take a few minutes to get toasty. A heated steering wheel would be nice as well woke up to minus 2 this morning with a covering of snow and has not risen much above 1 all day

One button press on the Nissan Leaf app, you get into the car with it all defrosted and the heated seats and wheel fired up.
I miss the defrost, I can take or leave the seats/wheel.
I would assume (hope) the ID3 is the same, I'll have to check.
Pretty much decided that'll be my next car, and pretty much decided it will be as soon as I can.
