Well the outside also gets icy, but the reason why the inside would also get icy is from Water Residue build up on the inner part of the window caused from the outside. ( perspiration ), Moisture.
Because the outside is cold, or damp and wet, it can cause the inside to do exactly the same.

Its because the air inside the car, is slighty warmer than the air outside. So condensation forms on the inside of the windshield and because it has direct contact with the glass it freezes.

make beneficial that in case you have an A/C button on your sprint, that that's on. aircon does extra effective than cool the air, it gets rid of humidity. for this reason, in the adventure that your A/C button is on, it is going to de-humidify and do away with the moisture. regrettably, whilst it gets too chilly exterior, the A/C will now no longer artwork, using fact it has a change interior the device that shuts it off. yet at temperatures above 30 -35 tiers, it is going to nonetheless function.

That's caused by condensation. Water molecules from the passengers' breath as well as the air system condense on the inside of the cold windshield and freeze.

The interior air is moist, mostly from your breathing. The windshield is below freezing, and will capture any moisture touching it on either side--and the outside air is dry and has nothing to deposit, so there you have it.

Easy to answer! (And easy to fix.) It's the moisture that comes from your body and breathing out. It attaches to the windows, because it's warmer (fogs them up, really). When its cold outside, that fog turns to ice (naturally). The solution is: you turn the heater on with up-vents toward the windsheild, sure. But you have to TURN ON THE A/C switch as well. Believe it or not, that balances the water-content in the air, and as you have to fight fire with fire, you have to fight air with the A/C.

when the dewpoint is below freezing, no ice will form on the outside, but because the windshield is under 31.9 degrees, the vapor from breathing and perspiration will freeze on the windshield's inside.

Condensation from the warmer inside air (your breath) makes contact with the colder glass and freezes.

its like this:
if its colder than the surrounding air, then the water condenses on it, if its really cold like in Boston today, it freezes sometimes
in Summer , a glass of water gets wet on the outside if it has ice in it

maybe the seal is broken around the windshield or you left the window open
