I have a 2023 Outlander GT PHEV and it's cold weather usage is not great. Especially when it can regularly get below -20°C where I live.
When I use the Mitsubishi Connect app to set the cabin climate temperature, it just blows the same ambient cold air into the cabin.
I checked the app help and the website and noticed it states that, "For Outlander PHEV vehicles, the remote climate feature uses the vehicle battery primarily. However, when the outside air temperature is lower than 15°F (-10°C), the remote climate feature starts the engine automatically to ensure heating performance."

I have never experienced the engine starting below 15°F (-10°C) and when I asked my dealership, they said it can't be done.
Has anyone else noticed this and have you been able to enable the remote engine startup when it's below 15°F (-10°C)?
Thanks
