What kind of car do you drive that doesn't have one?




An EV with a heat pump. I know literally there is a heat exchange/radiator, but there is not a separate radiator system with its own fluids and pumps.

You don’t get to decide whether a radiator is a radiator just because the coolant can internally shuffle heat to the A/C. I’m assuming that you drive a Tesla, in which case your car still has a big fat low temperature radiator. If you’re driving virtually any other EV on the market, it still has a big fat low temperature radiator, or even multiple.

Literally any ev?

No. My EV, for example literally has servo-controlled shutters that route fresh air to the radiator when needed.
