The third display, transparent, and is located on the windshield with infrared cameras that react to the movement of the eye, which include it, if the driver looked at the display. In addition, available free internet access, climate control, multimedia system, etc. It is unclear why, but Volvo even boast that they have a firm grip in the cabin :)
