The seats in my old Triumph used to get so hot on the highway in AZ that my legs and butt would sweat, does that count?

Seat warmers - offered as a front-seat option in all models except the Series 75, which had it as an option for the rear seat only.

To be more specific, the heated seat option was activated only in the event of a rear-end collision!

The oldest cars with heated seats that I have seen are Cadillac, Mercedes or BMW dating back to the 70's.
