I will make sure to run the A/C an appropriate amount. I understand that the compressor is belt driven, but the IMA kicks in to help the car accelerate went the gas engine is under the extra load from the compressor. I understand what everyone is saying about keeping the cabin cool though. I think I'm going to get the windows tinted as well as run the A/C to keep it cool.

Thank you for all the advice.
