Usually when car windows fog up, it’s because the air inside the car is dramatically cooler or warmer than the air outside, or there is too much moisture inside the car. So, your goal here is going to be to try and find a balance between the temperatures and the moisture levels.
Here’s how to prevent car windows from fogging up on the inside:
Avoid leaving anything wet or damp in your car; it contributes to the moisture.
Leave a moisture absorber inside the car.
Clean your windows with a microfiber cloth often.
Use an anti-fogging cleaner when you clean your windows.
Turn on the heat and let it run for a few minutes before driving away.
