    I have the 2018 chevrolet traverse awd lt and it look like it came with the heated side mirror because when I turn on the rear defrost. The two side mirror fog went away unless I'm just seeing things. I think it's a genius implementing the rear defroster with the side mirror all in one button even though it doesn't give any indication for the side mirror. Smart move GM by wiring it all into a single defrost button if you have the heated side mirror feature on the mirror. This is one that is well thought out on this 2018 traverse. And making life easier for the consumers.

    the 2022 Hyundai Elantra Preferred (Canada, in the US it would be SEL) does not have the icon on the mirror and neither the small icon on the button (says only REAR) but the mirrors are heated, you can tell by turning on the "REAR" button and touching the mirrors, they will feel warm.

      no it is a double element like what is on the back window but it is only below the place that the wipers rest. can it clear the whole window? no. If you had ice on the window would it clear more rhan just the spot where the wipers, yes over time, and in conjunction with the defrost mode on your air conditioner it would help but it does not heat the whole window with that button.
