It has no sense to buy a plugin for having the battery charged by petrol, it's not a full hybrid car!!
This car must be charged anytime is parked and in lon g runs just used as a norma car, the software will keep some energy for starting the car and for providing extra boots when needed but using the e- save function to keep the battery charged when is not needed has no sense.

I found that using B on normal road is increasing consumptions

Yes low temp is affecting the range anso because heating takes energy from battery. I cannot test since I'm living in Milan and we have lockdown.

anything providing energy will work, I tested some adapters and all of them works without issues.
One similar to the one linked from ebay was bought at a very cheaper price on Aliexpress.

One consideration, any cable with more that 16A mono does not make any sense for a captur; the weight will be much higher and also the bending angle will be terrible.

No it just use battery to heat the car. I got an Intens since last week and unfortunately we are actually in lockdown here in Milan but believe me air conditioning use the traction battery and mileage will suffer of if you use it in winter. I just had few time to check but this is what happens.
When it's in charge energy is taken from the charger so you can switch it on without problems even remotely from the app (a very bad piece of software).
