BMW 5 Series: Introduction, Display
Introduction
There is only one instrument cluster available with the launch of the G30.
The instrument cluster has
an 8.8" TFT display and therefore allows for situation-dependent display of
information that is relevant
to the driver. This flexible display of information achieves a maximum degree of
clarity and comfort and
is used among other things for the following improvements:
- Minimization of driver distraction by optimum arrangement of related
functions and situation-
based displays.
- Improvement of the driving experience by the display hierarchy and
design adapted to the
driving situation.
- Improved driving comfort through the display of new indicating
instruments and functions
(e.g. picture-in-picture map display on the instrument cluster).
