Unless it’s very cold there is no need to warm an engine up for cars. All the fluids and the engine transmission are design to work fully right after starting. If it’s super cold just limit speed and acceleration for the first five minutes.

It’s not. You are wasting energy for nothing. Start engine, accelerate moderately. That’s it.
