Climate control

[Bodie70]

Hi, I am new to the EV world and I'm trying to decide which model of MG4 to go for. I live in Lyon, France, where the summers are blisteringly hot and the winters can be very cold. The Trophy model (called Luxury in France) is the only model with a heat pump. How important is a heat pump and how effective are MG4s at regulating the temperature in general? Can they cope with very hot and cold temperatures or does this deplete the battery very quickly?

I found this article helpful in giving an understanding and guidance regarding moderate climate benefits..or not depending on additional costs.
