2010 Jaguar XJ screen illegal in US

Jaguar's clever dual-view screen which is fitted to the 2010 XJ may be illegal in the United States due to a law which bans video entertainment systems in the front seat.

The screen itself displays two different pictures depending on where you're sitting. So for example the driver can see the sat-nav display while the front-seat passenger watches a film.

The XJ's designer, and chief designer at Jaguar, Ian Callum has revealed that. "At the moment, it's technically illegal."

So unless the law can be amended to allow for double view screens (where the driver cannot view the entertainment offerings), the U.S. version of the XJ could miss out on one the model's innovative highlights.
