I heard the same story, but it was chiefly about equipment, and largely diesel (which is what kinda makes them okay to idle overnight as supposedly the consumption of diesel engines on idle is quite low.)
- the_third_wave 3y ago0.4 to 0.5 l/hr for a 1.6l VAG CAYC TDI as used in e.g. Škoda Octavia II. Source: one of those is currently parked in the snow in front of our house. It starts without problems and without the need for a block heater at -25°C, the coldest it has been so far this winter here. A full fuel tank (55l) will last for about 100-110 hours (4-5 days) when idling.
