Some cars already use the electric heating automatically when you unlock the doors remotely. It just blasts hot air and heats up the seat quickly. I think the latest prius does it, but I may be wrong here.

But key fob needs to be nearby and almost getting into the car. I was thinking doing it in the office remotely 5 to 10 minutes before leaving. Cooling a car takes some times.
My brother's car (Cadillac Escalade) has remote starting through an Android app, and you can adjust the climate control through the app as well.
