An apparatus for removing accumulated snow and/or ice from the undercarriage of a motor vehicle before it is parked in an indoor garage or parking lot includes a piping network with multiple jet/spray nozzles installed on the undercarriage and configured to direct nozzle sprays of pressurized heated antifreeze solution and nozzle jets of pressurized heated air to the perimeter areas of the undercarriage, including the wheel-wells, where snow/ice accumulation is most prevalent. Along with the network of nozzles, the undercarriage snow/ice removal apparatus includes a conductive and/or radiative heating grid covering the undercarriage perimeter areas to which the nozzle sprays and nozzle jets are directed. The undercarriage de-icing apparatus also includes multiple capacitive undercarriage icing sensors distributed throughout the de-icing areas.
