Does the Haval H4 have heated mirrors?
2 Answers
The standard configuration of the Haval H4 does not include heated mirrors. However, this feature can be retrofitted later, but the wiring must comply with safety standards and should not interfere with other critical driving circuits. The Haval H4 features a 5-door, 5-seat SUV body structure, with two body length options: 4410mm and 4420mm. The width is 1845mm, the height is 1695mm, and the wheelbase is 2660mm. The heated mirror function refers to the ability of the exterior mirrors to be heated via embedded heating elements behind the mirror glass when driving in rain, snow, or fog, ensuring clear visibility of the mirror surface. Principle of heated mirrors: Heating elements (heating films) are installed inside the mirror glass of both side mirrors. In rainy or snowy weather, when the driver activates the heated mirror function, these elements quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius, thereby defogging and defrosting the mirror surface.
I've been driving for over a decade and have dealt with many Haval models, including the rearview mirror heating issue on the H4. On higher-trim Haval H4 models, this feature is commonly standard equipment, especially for models manufactured in recent years. The button is integrated on the driver's side door panel, and when activated, it quickly defogs and clears rain. It's particularly useful during rainy or snowy weather, preventing accidents caused by obscured vision. For mid-to-low trim versions without this feature, it's recommended to drive slower in rainy conditions and check frequently, or even install heating strips yourself – though you should consult a professional technician to avoid compromising electrical safety. Ultimately, checking your vehicle's manual or online specifications to confirm which version you have is crucial, as driving safety is no trivial matter.
