Yes it has air, and it works very well. We set a new record high last Thursday at 93, but were very comfortable in the car cruising at 75.

I believe the compressor runs off the HV battery, and you can't even tell when it comes on. Even if you are sitting at a stop, I can't hear ANYTHING when I turn it on. I turned it on while accelerating and couldn't even feel it. So, it uses a bit more battery power, but our 18 mile commute doesn't even come close to using up all the reserved power for pure EV mode.

I think I said 22 mile commute in my original post, but that was a guess.... now I am actually paying attention... besides, when I shut it off each time it tells me exactly how far that trip was.... so I don't have to keep track of the odometer to see how far the commute is.
