- January 2020: BMW debuted intelligent glass control, a reflective glass type that can be turned on or off manually or automatically, in its electric SUV, the iNextit, at CES 2020. Glass can detect any particular sun position using a variety of sensors, allowing only specific sections of the window to be altered to block out excessive heat and light.
- In 2019: At its production facilities in Europe, Guardian Glass made investments to update its float glass lines. Since the current furnace is nearing the end of its useful life, the factory in the United Kingdom will undergo an upgrade and modernization.

- It's been anticipated that smart glasses will be the next big thing in the whole car business. The majority of research focused on enhancing and expanding the use of smart glass in consumer automobiles. It can be utilised to install a front screen in cars, which will facilitate easier access to all controls and enhance the interior design. Producers like as Mercedes and Volvo are working hard to create this kind of glass soon.
- Growing use of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS): ADAS integration in cars necessitates specific automotive glass components; this gives industry participants an opportunity to provide cutting-edge glass solutions that facilitate ADAS features.
- Shift towards lightweight materials: Lightweight materials are becoming more popular in the automobile sector as a result of the increased focus on fuel economy and carbon emission reduction. This creates chances for producers of automotive glass to create and offer lightweight glass options that lower the total weight of vehicles.
- Price volatility for raw materials: Market participants may face difficulties due to price fluctuations for raw materials like soda ash and silica sand, which are utilised in the production of automotive glass. These variations in price may have an effect on the industry's overall profitability.
- Exorbitant installation and replacement costs: Installing and replacing car glass can be expensive for consumers, which might put off some prospective buyers. Growth in the market may be hampered by this element, particularly in price-sensitive sectors.
- Environmental issues: There may be an environmental impact from the manufacture and disposal of automotive glass. To address these issues, the sector must concentrate on sustainable methods, such as recycling and energy conservation.
