It might be safer to just get a 12v massager pad you can plug in.
Well, years ago I believed heated seats and steering wheel were unnecessary. Now that I have them my mind has switched. My old bones and deteriorating back is thankful.

Got my first car with heated seats many years ago (1994 Saab 900 used in 99 or 2000). Swore I'd never be without again. It's not an age thing imo. It's a winter thing plain and simple. And you just don't realize how some lux things are must have until you have them. I thought heated steering wheel was way extravagant...then drove my mom's Jeep for a week. Yea, that's must have in my next car. [emoji39]

So long as it doesn't short something out!
Our winters aren't as cold here. Our summers are hotter and wouldn't mind ventilated seats
Afraid won't happen there or here but more of a chance in Europe
Hey dont get me wrong but: https://www.autobytel.com/car-buying-guides/features/10-vehicles-with-massage-seats-130517/
Thank you. IMHO I am good without headlamp washers but I happen to have side mirrors : heated but it doesn't seem to do any good. Front sensors have been available in AU models for a long time but in US its not even an option and for whatever Godforsaken reason Mazda decided to offer rear parking sensors even though rear view camera was standard. The 2 dealership I know and I am well acquainted with - both confirm they have seen maybe 1 or 2 out of all they have sold who wanted those rear sensors.
Also 1 more : I am seeing most cars, the rear view camera has guide lines which move with steering wheel. Not sure of Mazda's though.

Don't get me wrong, I love the LEDs. One big reason I went GT. I've always wanted lights that turn with the steering wheel. And I run the fogs a lot. [emoji16]
Does any car in this class have adaptive headlights?
And I do have to give Mazda props for adding new features every single year. 16 was tweaked. Then 16.5. Then 17. 18, more tweaks and additions still. Hell, Saab didn't do that. The 95 900 is pretty much the same car as the 98. Nothing changed from 99-02. Redesign, then the same model for years. Not even minor tweaks.
Oh, and I had headlamp washers for many years. Even had wipers on a few cars. Just a gimmick really.

Checked Rav4, and CR-V: no. Cherokee doesn't have it. So, no.

Is this an Australian thing? I can't find anything for US.
Yep. I can back up and parallel park without any help. The current setup if just fine.
Mazda offers dynamic lines in Europe but not here in Oz
Think so (uhm)
+1 on the heated steering wheel. Test drive a Ford explorer sport this weekend and it had that. Jeez that is one nice feature. I enjoyed it that much that I want it now lol
Maybe use a car bra instead. Covers up the front including the headlights
Mazda removed the headlight washers which i found useful when they started fitting LED lights. I also had them on my last xtrail bought 2009.
