Does anyone know what, specifically, this refers to, i.e., how is a "hot climate version" vehicle different from whatever other designations there are? Is there a "cold climate version" and/or a "mild climate version"?

The HVAC system is programmed differently so to cool the cabin better in hot climates. I know this is one thing the coders over here can mod - bc we just do not get high heat temps over here in DE.
