Instant Heat on Cold Days and Cold Start Protection

[Ryanthetemp]

I found this tid bit:
“. The heater core inlet hose is sourced from the oil cooler. Not only does this allow for instant heat on a cold morning, it allows the oil to remain warm up to 36 hours after shutdown. This protects the engine from cold start wear and keeps both fluid temps in-check. That is how the 2020 Toyota Supra mpg is better than most.”

Wait, is this just describing an oil to water heat exchanger? Plenty of cars have that, including the MKIV lol, along with plenty of pedestrian cars like Subaru Foresters .
