A mail enquiry was made on the winter use of passenger cars and particularly on the number and use of electrical engine prewarmers. The influence of more effective use of prewarmers on energy consumption has been estimated from the results. It has been estimated that with more effective use of the prewarmer about 55 million litres of fuel or about 3% of the total consumption of the passenger cars could be saved annually.
