Nothing to do with the size of the engine but the design of the heating system fitted, with my discos heater blower on full to the screen frost is cleared in the time it takes me to flat the side windows so no time at all.
I could also switch on my heated screen which is great when there's snow about, and all much the same as another more modern car with a V8 I own.
But in my RRc days it took ages as the 3.5 had a perthetic heater system full stop, not the worse heating I've ever known but still pretty poor.

My defender has it as standard. I think they are fantastic. It clears mist and ice far quicker than any heater ever will. Had one on an old ford too. Would always have one given the option

my local National Windscreens depot supplied and fitted a heated screen to my 110 rebuild for something silly like <£150 after I broke the original screen refitting it (TBF to me, it did have a huge chip in it so was quite likely to break, even without my hamfistedness). I added a 10min timer relay driving two power relays (one for each side of the screen - 3x contacts) and it works a treat.
BTW, they actually prefer to fit it with the frame in the vehicle
controller and relay (together with headlight relays). Timer energised with a momentary pushbutton switch in the dash.

Yes I have a heated screen in my defender (genuine part)
only half working at the moment but the passenger side that does work is well worth it turn it on scrape the other windows then sure enough its done.
just need to be able to feel my fingers in the cold and will look at the wiring to fix the drivers side
