Windshield

Windshields are a critical structural and safety component of any passenger car or commercial vehicle, forming an integral part of the vehicle's roof and providing significant rigidity. Located at the front of the vehicle's cabin, they protect occupants from the elements and debris while providing a clear field of vision for the driver. Automotive windshields are laminated glass constructions, designed to withstand impacts and prevent shattering, minimizing the risk of injury. Variations include heated windshields for defrosting, and those with integrated antenna systems or sensors for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Examples in this category include windshields for Porsche models, MAN trucks (MPN N1.01104-2106), Volkswagen passenger cars, and heavy-duty Volvo and Mercedes-Benz trucks.
