Abstract

A vehicle includes an outer glass pane, an outer laminated layer, an inner laminated layer, and one inner glass pane, wherein a PDLC layer stack is arranged between the outer and inner laminated layers, the PDLC layer stack formed by a) an outer polymeric carrier layer, b) an outer electrically conductive layer, c) a PDLC layer, d) an inner electrically conductive layer, and e) an inner polymeric carrier layer, wherein at a lateral section of the PDLC layer stack, the inner electrically conductive layer protrudes together with the inner polymeric carrier layer, and at another lateral section of the PDLC layer stack, the outer electrically conductive layer protrudes together with the outer polymeric carrier layer, and a busbar is arranged in each case on the protruding inner electrically conductive layer and the protruding outer electrically conductive layer.
