Electric heat?

[oljackfrost]

Not sure where I saw it, but does anyone else remember seeing that Ford’s new electric motor in the hybrid is water cooked rather than air cooled? Does this mean that some winter interior heat might come from the electric motor, so that the gas engine doesn’t have to run to supply heat ? (In cold but not severe cold conditions.)

That does not sound logical to me.
