AGC Cover Glass for Car-mounted Displays to be Used in New Lexus RX Series
AGC (Headquarters: Tokyo; President: Takuya Shimamura) has announced that its cover glass for car-mounted displays will be used in Lexus' new RX series, just released for sale on August 29.
AGC’s product, comprising DragontrailTM, a specialty glass highly-receptive to chemical strengthening that has been enhanced with chemical reinforcement treatment, optical thin coating, and decorative printing, will be used as the protective surface glass for the RX's navigation display.
As a luxury SUV, the interior of the new Lexus RX series is characterized by its fusion of fine quality and innovation. AGC's cover glass for car-mounted displays will be used for their navigation displays, to be available in 8 or 12.3 inch overseas, and 12.3 inch only in Japan. This cover glass is an ideal match for the high-quality interiors given the quality feel of the glass itself, and also offers exceptional viewing clarity as well as other features demanded for display touch panel glass, including fingerprint and wear resistance.


In response to the increasing size and shape-complexity of modern car displays, AGC not only ensures that its car-mounted display cover glass provides the level of safety expected from an in-vehicle material through AGC’s unique design and evaluation process, but also employs proprietary coating and surface printing technologies, covered by multiple patents, to play a key role in improving both viewing clarity and usability for displays.
