Does the new Sylphy have heated mirrors?
2 Answers
The new Sylphy does not come with heated mirrors. If the owner has a need for this feature, they can install a heated mirror device to improve driving safety in rainy conditions. The heated mirror function refers to the ability of the exterior mirrors to be heated via electric heating wires embedded behind the mirror surface, ensuring clear visibility during rain, snow, or fog. The rear design of the new Sylphy is full and rounded, with chrome bright strips above and below the license plate holder, enhancing the car's luxury feel. The high-end model of the new Sylphy also includes a rearview camera. The dimensions of the new Sylphy are 4641mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1450mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2712mm.
I remember the first time driving my new Sylphy in the rain, I specifically touched the side mirror and felt it was warm. Later, I confirmed it by checking the manual. The heated side mirrors feature is located in the air conditioning control area—it's the button with a square frame and wavy arrows depicting rear window heating. When you press the rear window defogger, it automatically activates this function. This feature is super practical, especially during humid weather when the mirror fog dissipates in just half a minute, eliminating the need to wipe the side mirrors. However, note that the heating automatically turns off after 30 minutes of continuous use, as it relies on heating wires attached to the inner side of the mirror glass. Owners of the classic version Sylphy should check their model, as Nissan's configuration table indicates that the classic version does not come with heated side mirrors.
