Default Rear demister /defroster

Is anyone finding the rear demister rather lacking in capability? I just went out to pick my daughter up and it was 1 degree and already slightly frozen. I drove for 12 minutes and it still hadn’t cleared it. In fact there was an odd pattern of clearing and it even turned itself off at one point so I had to turn it back on.

I've noticed this a few times recently - a bit of condensation on the rear screen which has always cleared in a couple of minutes on previous cars is still lingering after 5 or even 10 minutes. I don't look forward to trying to clear frost or ice from it - hopefully the front heated screen is better.
