Question type: General

Can I run my cabin A/C or heater while my vehicle is plugged in?  this would
save the battery's electric range..

Ask your dealer. Odds are the AC and heater are dependent on the engine running unlike all electric cars.

Yes, but it needs to be plugged in to a level 2 charger. The heater or A/C draws more power than the level 1 charger that came with the vehicle can provide.
