In this work, we examine the implications of driving with transparent cockpits (TCs) in a narrow-space overtaking scenario. We utilize a virtual environment to simulate two possible manifestations: a user-controlled head-mounted system and a static projection-based system. We conducted a user study with an overtaking task and present results for acceptance and a comparison of both systems regarding user experience. Participants preferred the static TC and evaluated it as the solution with higher pragmatic quality and attractiveness. The TC generally scored highly in hedonic quality and was rated positively regarding perceived safety and ease of use.
