Do you need a HUD for distance alert?

[Partridge]

I'm pretty sure there is NO option for Heated Screen WITH Head Up Display.

So that screen doesn't exist.

Non heated screen, no HUD is the basic screen. Then there is the Heated screen with the tiny mesh embedded.

After that there is a coated screen. When they put the wrong screen in my V90 after a crack, the HUD was pretty useless. Putting the right screen in fixed it.

What MAY have happened is that they standardised on the coated screen for ALL cars for stockholding/inventory purposes on a market by market basis.

If you have a HUD, you need the coating as far as I can tell.

At least with my previous xc90, adding the HUD resulted in a heated windshield delete.

This resulted in some truly stupid vehicle configs like my 2017 T8 R-design. Why?

Because you paid full price for the climate package which included the heated rear seats, heated windshield, and heated steering wheel, and heated washer jets.

BUT, adding HUD deletes the heated windshield. And the R-design that year came with heated washer jets by default. And they for some reason deleted the heated steering wheel with the R-design package.

Which meant that if you configured a R-design with HUD, you would end up paying full price for the climate package but only getting heated rear seats of it.

That’s part of the reason why they changed up the option package groupings in later years.
