The heating system in the 2011 Buick Regal, which includes heated seats, is located beneath the front passenger seat cushion. Heated seats provide therapeutic benefits for individuals with conditions that benefit from warmth, such as sprains, sciatica, arthritis, or intercostal neuralgia. While these features are helpful, they do consume more power, leading to reduced fuel efficiency. Idling your vehicle to warm it up before driving decreases fuel economy since idling gets you 0 miles per gallon. Additionally, colder air is denser, contributing to increased aerodynamic drag on your vehicle, particularly at highway speeds.
