In an episode (don't remember the name) of the original series, it was said that the glass was something better than bulletproof. The bullets ricocheted back to the shooter if shot at the windows. That means the glass was not glass, but something else (a new material made for the series and only in the series).

Probably the very first episode, and likely any other too. the entire car was coated with a "molecular bonded shell" which supposedly rendered it virtually indestructible. Except it could still be damaged by heavy artillery, or by other objects coated with the same shell and much more massive than itself (eg Goliath), and the shell could also be broken down with a 'base agent' (s4, knight of the juggernaut). In any case, it rendered the windows and shell completely unbreakable. which leads me to:

Looks good, waiting with baited breath for the UK release.
About the windows - even bullet proof glass scratches, an auto repair system gets rid of all that.
Plus it looks quite good :D

a fair point, though you seem to have missed mine...which was that the original car was virtually indestructible, thus bullets had no effect on the windows whatsoever. no scratches, certainly no spider web effect when struck like in this trailer. so why isnt the new car equipped with the same shell, instead of this fancy nanotech thing it has now?

Can't wait for the new series to get to Norway, by the way. :D

Me either, like amateur for the UK release. Hence why my mates downloading it for me, because someone will likely upload it. its how i'm on series 3 of supernatural, season 7 of smallville (e4 has only recently started showing 6) and why im waiting for BSG series 4 lol (season 1 hasnt even aired on terrestrial tv here yet, only sky!).

yet another reason to love the internet lol!
