I think the vehicle is rated (quote/unquote since it is entirely unrated yet) for a certain draw, but it has a hundred km range I think.

So wouldn’t the a/c just need to draw less than the total?

It is a (very) tiny vehicle.

OTOH if it is just too small for that, gotta get something bigger.

We will see.

No, power demand on an A/C compressor is *right now* all the time.

Granted, it's a small vehicle with a small interior space, so the A/C components and power draw could likely be reduced. But then you're looking at custom made components (not off-the-shelf millions of units like in large-scale production cars) which would costs as much as the car itself again.

No, there's no way to run an effective A/C off the low power that car provides.
