Which cars have a heated windscreen like that fitted to the Nissan Pathfinder?

I see that one of your readers, in reviewing a Nissan Pathfinder, says it needs a heated screen. Just a general question - does any manufacturer other than Ford do these as a standard fit? I'm talking family cars such as the Focus, not exotica!

A few others do, all of which have been in Ford's "sphere of influence" at one time or other, as the Quickclear screen is a Ford patent. You'll find it on certain Jaguars, Land Rovers and Volvos.
