    Sorry to post this here, but I'm not finding much out there as far as tech. details on the 2021 BMW 330eplug in hybrid. I'm on my 3rd Prius (currently a Prime), so I understand how it does things, but I've seen little to no detail on things like; hoes does the cabin HVAC system work in EV/hybrid mode, how does regen work (one pedal, brake pedel, etc), in hybrid mode, does the system automatically run the ICE to get it to operating temperature, etc.

    Has any one found any good places to read about these things?

    (I'm asking because I'm looking to get a new car. I'd like a car with more HP than the Prime, and the 330e would fit the bill and still get better millage than the straight gas version.

    Thanks,

    John

    If your questions can’t be answered from the owner’s manual or sales brochures, or by a dealer salesperson, you might try subscribing to the BMW Technical Information System, from $30 for one day’s access. I haven’t used that site and can’t comment on its quality, completeness, or ease of navigation.
