Middle East and Africa Instrument Cluster 2022 Business Scenario

The instrument cluster is placed directly in front of the steering wheel in most modern automobiles and trucks, placing all of the instruments within the driver's natural line of sight. Some vehicles have turned signal indicators mounted at the front, top end of each fender, many early automobiles had coolant temperature gauges built right into the radiator caps, and some vehicles have also had tachometers that were hood-mounted. No doubt, the first vehicles didn't have instrument clusters when they rolled out of the barns and sheds where they were made (or even when the first mass-produced cars went on sale). They didn't have any instruments at all, for that matter. These early automobiles resembled carriages of the time rather than modern automobiles, and they lacked the passenger compartment or "cockpit" that we are familiar with today.
