Per interview with Gordon Wagener (my bold) on the new CLA:
“There’s this new technology (that lets) you illuminate the glass roof. You can put certain patterns in, like a star pattern. For sun protection, you can shut it off so that no light goes through,” he said.“
“On the previous day, the German automaker laid out the plan to build four cars -- a four-door coupe, a shooting brake model and two sports utility vehicles --on the MMA platform with the CLA Concept Class’ products expected to be launched at the end of next year.”
JH says the following a fair bit:
“Last, but not least, it gives us three centimeters more headroom. That means we can basically make the car three centimeters lower, which is of course great for the design proportion (and) also for aerodynamics.”
Also, Per Gauzy’s SEC filing before going public:
We plan to expand production to an additional four leading OEMs in 2024, including Daimler. We have entered into supply agreements with each of these OEMs to have our SPD technology installed in their new car models. |
