I don't think you'll find a "good" solution that does not involve plugging in. Except perhaps Gerbing jackets for your passengers.

As for an interior heater, does your car have a fold down rear seat for putting long crap in the trunk? Fold that down and have a small box fan/heater sitting in the trunk, and run the wire up to tie in with your block heater. One plug, no problem. Just get a heater with a thermostat so it stops when the car is a comfortable 80F...
