All new Ford GT has the dashboard of the future
16 Jan 2017|1,584 views
The all new Ford GT features a digital instrument display in the car's dashboard to present information quickly and easily to the driver, like the glass cockpit in airplanes and race cars.
The innovative 10-inch wide digital instrument display is far advanced from the original Ford GT, when the cockpit was hardwired with a fixed set of analogue gauges, buttons and knobs across the dashboard to address every situation. "Driver focus and attention are key with such high performance," said Jamal Hameedi, Chief Engineer, Ford Performance.
Ford engineers and designers created the state-of-the-art, 10-inch wide digital gauge cluster to be customisable, elegant, and able to tailor information to each drive mode, to provide the data drivers need to make critical decisions behind the wheel in the most efficient possible way.
The Ford GT program presented a unique opportunity to reimagine the instrument cluster, expanding what a connected car can be and previewing the future of Ford vehicles. Its layout is designed around which data is most important, when to present it, and how to show information in a way that's most expedient for a driver to process.
The GT isn't the only Ford vehicle that will receive full digital instrument display technology. This innovation is coming to other future Ford vehicles - another example that Ford continues raising the performance bar while ultimately improving vehicles for all of our customers.
