That is a great idea, so long as your own car has them, may make people less careful which is maybe not so great. But good to see that practical innovation is still alive.

Heated windscreen is great, now have one in a JLR product which is great for instant demisting, and as cars are now available with remote start means it can be defrosted and warmed before you leave the home.
I think Porsche have been offering HW on Cayennes for a while and now macans, but cant remember if they are a licensed product or a different application.

Joking aside these won’t last 5 mins surely...? Are you going to remember to wait to close your door for them to retract every time you get in...?? Nice idea, but in every day land how practical..?
