The Nordics do.

What, heaters whilst running? (electric engine block heaters are very
common here - plug into the mains a while before you need to use the car,
as otherwise there's just no way it's going to start in mid-winter. I've
not heard of someone using an electric heater to warm the passenger cabin
whilst moving, though)


Yes. Little fan heaters.

Mind, that was in Helsinki in January...
