Our Outlander PHEV has similar behaviour in the colder weather, it decides to use the ICE to generate the power needed to operate the heatpump.

It behaves like this in cold weather. Also there are times when I just accelerate a little to overpass, the ICE engages and then it runs for a while, even at the red light! I am amused, as this behaviour kind of defeats the whole start-stop system... 2019 Vogue P400e |

If the engine is cold it will run until it’s reached operating temperature. BMW i3 Electric Car

I've read-up about this. Seems whole EV doesn't work below -5C.

It appears there are common grounds here. I did measure the 'creep current'. After the app says "fully charged". the system eats 3kWh per 24/h if it stays connected.
