Does the Xingyue L have heated side mirrors?
3 Answers
Heated side mirror function involves installing an electric heating element inside the mirror lenses on both sides. Heating the mirrors can effectively remove fog and frost. The Xingyue New Energy model is equipped with heated side mirrors. Xingyue New Energy owners can activate this function when driving in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather to ensure clear mirror surfaces, providing great convenience. The electric mirror adjustment is integrated on the driver's door panel, allowing the driver to adjust according to their needs. The heated mirror button is also located here.
Yes, my Xingyue L Supreme Edition has been running for over two years, and the rearview mirror heating comes as a standard feature. It's especially practical on rainy days or when fogging up in winter—just press the button with the heat wave symbol on the center console, and the mirrors will clear up in about three to five minutes. Last time I went to Changbai Mountain, with temperatures below minus twenty degrees Celsius and the windows frosted over, turning on the heating melted the frost clean away. However, it's worth noting that this function automatically shuts off after 30 minutes to prevent overheating, so remember to turn it off after use to avoid draining the battery.
Absolutely! Last time my wife was driving in a heavy rain, the rearview mirror was covered with water droplets. I told her to press the rearview mirror heating button on the air conditioning panel, and the fog evaporated in less than two minutes. This function is linked with the rear window defogger. The manual states that the mirror heating automatically activates when the temperature is below 15 degrees and stops when it's above 20 degrees, which is super convenient. However, during summer rainstorms, you still need to turn it on manually because the temperature conditions aren't met for automatic activation. If you're buying a used car, make sure to check if this function works properly. I've heard cases where the wiring got damp and caused malfunctions.
