I hate when the dealers don't know such details..

Gorjan i was also just looking at the italian website and when translated it also says that the solar attenuating glass is for the windscreen. and then when describing the privacy glass, it says how this stops UV rays and helps with the economy of the aircon.
i think i will email my spanish dealer next week, and try and get this matter cleared up before i do any ordering. i know they wont know, but at last they can contact their head office and try and find out.

Yes, that would be very nice. I don't know why there is not much attention given to such options which might be really usefull and this ootion is not very cheap. You can compare it to buying a new computer without knowing any specs. Like buying a bag of potatoes... For 800 EUR.

Please advise us if you get any info on this.

my dealer got back to me today and said that the solar attenuating glass is for all the windows including the windscreen.
i now wonder if it would be included in the windscreen if you order the cold climate pack and have heating elements in the windscreen too.

Thanks for the info!

I also wondered that about the heated windshield (and if it will be distracting to look trough the wires on the windshiled (never seens such)).

This also probably means that, if I order such glass, I will not be able to use my iPad for navigation instead of buying the expensive satnav option.

Very old thread... I know... But what's been the final verdict?

Is the panoramic roof always solar attenuating? Regardless of taking the actual solar attenuating glass option?

According to the Belgian brochure the pano roof "consist of toughened glass, is tinted and has a UV-filter to protect the passengers from the sun".

Sounds like "solar attenuating" to me.
