Niro EV Heater Not Getting Hot Enough

[Beast21]

So I got my new Niro EV a few months back, but I didn’t opt for the heat pump, and I’ve gotta say, the heater's been kinda disappointing. It takes ages to warm up and never really gets toasty. Is this the norm, or am I missing something? Anyone else dealing with this? Got any tricks to make the heater actually work better? Thanks!

Try checking your climate setting, maybe it's set to eco mode. To change this, go to Climate Settings > Drive Mode > Eco > Climate Control and switch it to Normal. Eco mode reduces cooling and heating power.

Does your car have a heat pump, or does it just blow warm air like an old toaster?
