While I agree it looks better without the wiper, being from Chicago rear wiper is a must through rain and snow. I’ll be optioning my vehicle w wiper in high gloss black :)

Our 2020 Taycan TS sedan has no wiper - love the appearance and too far ahead of everyone else to be concerned about seeing them!

My wife rarely used her rear wiper even in the rain in the ICE Mcan and I never needed one on my Tesla Y. As others have stated, I would not get the rear wiper since it’s an eyesore and limits rear visibility, and use a glass sealant if you’re still concerned.

One exception is if you live in a snowy environment, then I would opt for the rear wiper as well as the heated windshield.
