Reason why old car comes with less glass material
Have you ever notice that current cars got big and wide glass material on their windows, while old car using less material? What was that meant? Current cars which are release from factory usually want to cut their budget producing cars that able to be sell quickly and more efficient. For passenger and driver inside the car, actually those wide glass windows quite helpful for them on seeing the outside world. Even more important for driver to see what’s going on the street.
While old cars, usually produce with small or less glass window material, because at those time certain technology that could break glass into mini spectrum when an impact occurs on glass were not yet found. You see the importance of these technology help human kind minimize accident and reduce death loss.
Lets get back to our previous discussion about old cars, with those minimum technology, engineer found a solution to minimize accident that cause death on the passenger by makes the glass smaller. And not just windows material is the only difference between old and new cars.
If you take a look the design or shape of old cars, they got curve around the design, while cars in 80’s above are more box design, while the latest release car are more aero-dinamic. Those are also might be the main reason why they’re using small or less glass material.
With curve shape, imagine old cars with big and wide window, it would pretty mess up.
