The Mercedes-Benz G400 vehicle is upgraded with Advnanotech’s ADVGlass brand of SPD-Smart aftermarket side windows.The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, G-Wagen or Gelenvagen (cross country vehicle) is a four-wheel drive/sport utility vehicle produced by Steyr-Puch (now Magna Steyr) in Austria for German automaker Mercedes-Benz. The G-Class is the longest-produced Mercedes-Benz vehicle in Daimler’s history with a span of 32 years.
SPD-Smart automotive side and rear windows and sunroofs offer many benefits to passengers in the vehicle. Because of their fast-switching and infinite tunability, they reduce unwanted light and glare, which allows users to more comfortably maintain their views of the outside and to enjoy glare-free viewing of displays and video screens. SPD-Smart automotive glass also minimizes heat build-up inside the vehicle because of their ability to block solar heat gain. They automatically switch to their maximum heat-blocking state when the vehicle is not in use. These features improve a vehicle’s fuel efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. The deep tinting of SPD-Smart windows also gives users instant privacy on demand.
Advnanotech is licensed by Research Frontiers for SPD-Smart architectural and automotive products in Russia and is experienced in the production of electrified glazing products.
