I would say cautious... Same with low range given the supposed battery capacity.. they want to be reliable and have no drama about failing batteries.

Yesterday it was 37 degrees Celcius here and after a short drive, after I parked and locked the car I heard the radiator switching on and stayed on for about a minute, most probably for the cooling of the battery. The car was not plugged in so that makes me think that the system will keep the battery cool even when parked under the sun with the car off and unplugged. This is good news for me.

40c on my power cruise control and the cooling bypass is closed
