To some extent yes, but for the most part no.
Generally if I've got problems with foggy windows, it's winter. So there's heated (and therefore dry) air coming from the heater core. No need to add the A/C in that case. With my old car I was in the habit of leaving the heater control on "floor + defog", which was kind of nice in that my windows stayed clear and I didn't have the hot air blasting me in the face from the dashboard vents. Very rarely did I ever need to supplement the heat with A/C to clear up the windows.
Now one possibility is that the Versa has a *lot* of glass, so maybe that's why. Or maybe it's because it comes from Japan where you only see serious cold weather way up there in Hokkaido?
