Anonymous, 08 Apr 2025a good chunk of the heat from the sun is plain visible light, so even at 100% IR and UV reject... moreeven if it's a solid roof with surrounding tinted, the temperature could still rise highly from 38degC after 1.5hours.
most of the car only as quality Tinted TSER rating of 60% to 80%.
but this seems to have reached 87.5%, with 2 layers 2.0mm clear glass coating.
if that's not a typo, 2.0 clear glass is ultra-thin glass grade for such massive windshield and roof.

Or some expensive cars also had something like transparency changing glass based on electricity. They are significantly expensive but maybe with some R&D price could drop.

a good chunk of the heat from the sun is plain visible light, so even at 100% IR and UV rejection, you will get cooked under this glass compared to a good old metal roof,
but hey at least this might have the side effect of standardizing anti UV-IR glass on cars so window tinting becomes an aesthetic preference again
