One thing I've noticed when the battery is cold that it warms up quickly if I accelerate, coast and repeat for about 15 minutes (little hills in the road help too). It makes sense to me that this "surging" would do that but I wonder if it messes up the battery. I'd suppose that's unlikely seeing how "that's how it was built" so to speak.

I have seen youtubers doing that prior to DC charging. Another example of why we need a "precondition now" option.

I call that "Grandma Mode". My Grandmother would step on the gas, then come totally off, then step on the gas, then come totally off. Great case of whiplash when you went for a ride with her.
