I know that Mercedes doesn’t do that. The fan speed only increases once the heating is working. But their luxury cars usually have additional electrical heating, that works right from the start, and is powered by the battery and the generator.

And the diesel engines usually have a diesel powered heating element, to warm up the engine quickly, this is needed to reduce the pollution, because the cold engine performs badly.

Same with BMW.

I love that little temperature adjustment for the hands on BMWs.
