A new type of head-up display that spans the entire width of the windshield will soon help drivers – and their passengers – access practical information about their journey as well as the on-board infotainment system without taking their eyes off the road.

German carmaker BMW is behind this project, which is set to be integrated into its future "Neue Klasse" production models, set to hit the market starting in 2025. This new head-up display is unique in that it extends over the entire width of the windshield. The driver and the passenger can take advantage of a large surface area for interactions that make information accessible without having to take their eyes off the road.
