Functionality windshield heating

Car windshield heating is a function used primarily in low temperatures. It uses ultra-thin heating wires or a conductive layer inside the windshield that is electrically heated to remove ice and fog. The flow of electricity through these conductors generates heat that warms the windshield, dissolving ice or fog.

This is an effective and quick way to improve visibility in bad weather, making driving safer. It also eliminates the need to scrape ice, which increases comfort. While the technology was originally found in more expensive models, it is increasingly present in many vehicles.
