Once the engine gets up to 80C (Which is only on the highway, when I'm trekking along at 75-80mph).. it blows out nice, warm air. Driving around locally, the car rarely pushes 50C. On average, the car will run 45-50C once it's been "warmed up" (or taken on the highway, and then driven on local roads). Stop-and-go traffic, the car doesn't go near 80C, in this weather.
