A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle has an internal combustion engine with a coolant outlet connected to a coolant inlet of a fuel operated heater and wherein a coolant outlet of the fuel operated heater is connected to a coolant inlet of an HVAC heater, a coolant outlet of the HVAC heater further being connected to a coolant inlet of the internal combustion engine. The vehicle also has a temperature sensor at the coolant outlet of the internal combustion engine and a temperature sensor at the coolant outlet of the fuel operated heater. The vehicle has a three way valve arranged between the coolant outlet of the HVAC heater and the coolant inlet of the internal combustion engine such that there is a connection between the coolant outlet of the HVAC heater and the coolant inlet of the fuel operated heater, the connection bypassing the internal combustion engine.
