    Hi!

    Is it possible to find out more info about these features? For example, are they in the european version of the car?

    That's too bad, I can't imagine why such excellent feature isn't in the european version? It would probably mean that you would not need an enginge block heater.

    Toyota did it in the USA to help meet the emission control requirements.
