If you've got no Aircon put heating on hot and full blast and open windows slightly. The outside air isn't more humid, it's colder and supports less moisture.

Put the AC on (warm). The AC removes moisture from the air.

It took me years to understand this, for some reason I assumed air con was just to keep things cool in the summer.

I believe air conditioning was actually invented for its dehumidifying properties, in a news/print room I think.

Aside from putting on heaters, giving your glass a good clean does wonders.

Turn the air circulation off and set it to draw air from the outside instead. There's a button or slider control that lets you do this.

Make sure you haven’t got the air recirculating as well as having the AC on, the amount of cars driving around in autumn/winter with all the windows misted up scares me.

Air con on, any temperature really, and open the windows marginally.

Don't open the windows as that'll let in more moist air. The AC is all that is required.

Clean your windows every few months. E-cloths and water is all you need to do

I don’t have ac in my lorry normally I’ll just have a window open slightly which seems better than having the heating on for getting mist out.

Getting in and out the car will bring a bit of moisture in on carpets etc. I found that leaving one of [these](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325835446912?gbraid=0AAAAAB_7XZw9vaxBd8320KRkP1Ke2B0ci&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338723872&toolid=20006&customid=-g_S50gaAAAABPvWmy9MNpWv-TE_AAAAAA) helped no end and can be reused.

Switch the AC on, it has a built in dehumidifier

Air con will also work if you don't like being too hot.

Heater on the setting for your windows. Open the side windows a tad. 👍🏼

Put your heating on, this happens due the moisture in the cars, condensing when the window is cold due the temperature outside.
