A display device (1) for a vehicle displays information on the second layer of a first display screen (20, 21, 23) by means of characters (30, 33) or an icon (28, 32), displays on the second layer of a second display screen (13a) an icon (31) corresponding to the information displayed on the second layer of the first display screen (20, 21, 23), and displays a predetermined image displayed on the first layer of the first display screen (20, 21, 23) and the predetermined image displayed on the first layer of the second display screen (13a) such that both the predetermined images differ from each other when the display state is changed, and thereafter gradually changes the image displayed on the first layer of the first display screen (20, 21, 23) such that part or all of the predetermined image displayed on the first layer of the first display screen (20, 21, 23); becomes the same as the predetermined image displayed on the first layer of the second display screen (13a).

An operator configurable vehicle instrument panel with the ability to provide both analog and digital style outputs, and more particularly to an instrument panel configured to provide a digital style display in a first state and an analog state display in a second state using a physical pointer that was not visible in the first state.

A fuel economy improvement assist device (1) has: accelerator operation amount detection means (12); and display control means (15a) for displaying, on a display device (20), a target value corresponding to a target accelerator operation amount and a deviation value of the detected accelerator operation amount from the target accelerator operation amount (14a). The display control means (15a) calculates an accelerator depression speed based on the detected accelerator operation amount, and variably displays the deviation value in accordance with the calculated accelerator depression speed.

A center panel is closer to a viewer in the viewing direction than a speedometer A is and overlapped with the speedometer. The center panel includes an attachment portion extending from a rear side of the center panel towards a dial plate of the speedometer. The center panel is fixed to a printed circuit board of the speedometer via the attachment portion. Accordingly, when a combination meter is viewed, the attachment portion is concealed rearward of the center panel to be invisible. The center panel looks floating separately from the speedometer towards a viewer, which provides a combination meter having excellent visibility and aesthetic cosmetic appearance. Thus, a vehicular display device having excellent visibility and aesthetic cosmetic appearance can be provided by improving a method for supporting a displaying unit on a pointer instrument.

An operator configurable vehicle instrument panel with the ability to provide both analog and digital style outputs, and more particularly to an instrument panel configured to provide a digital style display in a first state and an analog state display in a second state using a physical pointer that was not visible in the first state.

A speed displaying device is provided in a vehicle that travels to reach a set target speed, and displays a speedometer (30) which indicates a speed of the vehicle. The speed displaying device includes the speedmeter (30) having a scale (32) and a controller that controls to display a pointer (36) pointed position which indicates a position of current speed of the vehicle in the scale of the speedometer, a speed setting position (41) which indicates a position of the target speed in the scale of the speedometer, and a speed difference region (45) which indicates the size of the difference between the current speed and the target speed with an area on the speed meter. The speed difference region is displayed at a position near the scale of the speedometer.
