Denso Electric A/C Compressor

An EV has no engine to drive a compressor and no waste heat to warm the cabin, so its air conditioning runs on high voltage and doubles as the heating system. The same loop also cools the battery, which is why an air conditioning fault on an EV can cost range as well as comfort.

Supplied by Denso.
