Indian Cars/SUV's with electric folding ORVM

Which indians vehicles have the electrically folding outside rear view mirrors.

I have seen it in the Honda Civic.

Is it possible to get an outside fitment, for cars not having it ??

To be clear, I am not talking about electrically adjustable ORVM, I am talking about ORVM's which will fold/open up themselves with a flick of a button from inside the car.

^ Oh yes! How could I forget the old Camry that has it. Hey I wonder if retrofitting the Toyota's power OVRM's on other cars would work. It would be a charm!

Are these available outside Toyota?
