Here in the 3rd-world, many folks survive with no-frills cars. Nowadays the A/C became considered quite a safety feature, supposed to reduce the exposure of the driver to urban violence (altough it's not so accurate), but it's not unusual to see some vehicles fitted only with weathershields to allow the windows to keep partially open while reducing the driver's exposure, and also useful to avoid the windows to frost. I still also see some brand-new cars without heater.
