There are two transparent TFT screens overlaid but angled, one toward the driver, one toward the passenger. The drivers screen will automatically revert to TV when the speed drops below walking pace too! When above walking speed the drivers still hears the tv audio, just cannot see the picture. It's also quite old technology developed by Jaguar.

I first heard of this technology in 2005 from SHARP, and I've been wanting it since. So when I saw the Evoque would have it along with RSE, I was over the moon...all the moons around Pluto that is. Then LR South Africa decided not to even offer the feature as an optional extra, yet its standard on FFRR. I've been begging them since launch to include it, I even told them I'll pay double the UK price and they basically told me to "F" off.

Live broadcast digital TV in North America will probably never happen, and even if it does, in my opinion, will take at least 5 years before it can catch up. The reason for that is because for some idiotic reason, the FCC adopted a TV standard that is inferior to Europe's. The Evoque's optional package in Europe uses a DVB receiver which is only available in Europe or some countries in Asia. US is still in the process of adopting a mobile digital TV standard. This is the main reason why mobile DTV is not possible in any car in North America.
