Heated steering wheel is badly needed, and while they were at it, they could cover it in a material that is more pleasant to hold than the nasty steering wheel the i3 has had all along. The steering wheel from an i8, perhaps. This should certainly have made its way into the i3s.
 
If my car had a heated steering wheel, I would use it. but I imagine it would be cost prohibitive to retrofit one. There is probably no wiring of sufficent gauge currently going to the steering wheel. In the mean time, there are 12v heated gloves, glove liners and jackets that you can buy right now I haven't tried them yet, I'd be careful to only use them while the car is running, so I don't run down the 12v battery.
 
Seriously. I would trade my heated seats for a heated steering wheel (though my passengers wouldn't like that). It's embarrassing that the LEAF has a heated steering wheel and the i3 doesn't!
