This.

It was hilarious when I went to my dealer asking for my cruise control to get upgraded to ACC with Pilot assist on my XC90 T8.

It was like I was speaking Greek.

My T8 will not remote start(obviously) if connected to the charging cable.

It pre-ventilates the car when hot and enables climate retention using residual heat after stopping when cold outside.

In my car under "Parking Climate" I have 2 options, "Preconditioning" and "Keep climate comfort". Both seems to be activated by timers.
Never used them however used the Remote Start from the app once. Works a treat but I'm just a little paranoid letting the car run without anyone in it.
