The confirmation comes directly from the Japanese house: on the new vehicles the standard equipment will include side cameras instead of the historical mirrors, and it is a historical passage.
Inside the car, two 6-inch displays will show the view outside the passenger compartment, integrated into the dashboard in an ergonomic position.
Super view
The driver will be able to choose between a standard viewing mode and a "wide" one which will further extend his field of vision up to 50% reduction in blind spots, adding more visibility even when reversing.
The cameras will also be water-repellent thanks to a special treatment, and will have a shape suitable for deflecting water drops.
The brightness levels of the displays will automatically adapt to the environmental conditions ensuring more clarity even at night and in low light.
The first models to see the farewell of the side mirrors will go into production by the end of the year in the UK, Germany, France and Norway.
