Car glass includes windscreens, side and rear windows and glass panel roofs.

Side windows can be either fixed or be raised and lowered by depressing a button (power window) or switch or using a hand-turned crank handle.

The power moonroof, a transparent, retractable sunroof, may be considered as an extension of the power window concept.

Some vehicles include sun blinds for rear and rear side windows.

Nowadays some cars use composite material instead of glass.

The windshield car is the front window. Modern windshields are generally made of laminated safety glass, a type of treated glass, which consists of two (typically) curved sheets of glass with a plastic layer laminated between them for safety, and are glued into the window frame.
