Drivers turn on the heating element with the push of a button, and the warmth prevents wiper blades from freezing to the glass. Both heated wipers and windshields are still relatively new.

What does a heated front windshield look like?
The purpose of a heated front windshield is to help melt ice or snow during the winter season. If you see any curvy wires across the windshield (pretty thin), especially near the base of the wipers, then your windshield is heated. The same applies for your rear windshield.
