Anyone got a definitive answer on this?

It is said the upper trims (OBX, BL, WT) will have an upgraded gauge cluster.
Is this the one we have always seen? Speedometer on the left and a large screen with fancy animations on the right.
Have they shown the gauge cluster in the lower trims? (Base, BB, BD)

High-level?

Standard? (this is the norm in entry level cars)

One of the many videos floating around mentioned the screen was bigger on the high-level instrument panel than on the standard.

Iā€™m not gonna lie to you guys. Iā€™d be pretty salty if they gave us lower trim folk this garbage in the year 2021/2022. Wouldnā€™t be a deal breaker though. Regardless, I donā€™t think that itā€™s going in any Bronco. Ford Website states verbatim an 8-inch Color LCD Instrument Panel is standard.

I believe you follow what the other lines are doing and you most likely find your answer. Ford Lingo, these are called Productivity Screens.

Oh shit, youā€™re right. Looks pretty sweet.
I might have to upgrade to the 12ā€ size.......

That is for your screen in the middle of the dash, not your instrument cluster.
Updated Post in response to the above

Iā€™m confused at your statement (Update: nevermind, I see what youā€™re saying). So would you say that what Ford describes as ā€œ8-inch Color LCD Instrument Panelā€ closely resembles this picture below? I would say it does and Iā€™m happy with that setup. The other picture I mentioned, wonā€™t be in a Bronco based on Fordā€™s description.

I'd actually prefer all analog gauges with just a simple data center personally ??ā€ā™‚ if we can't get a full digital setup. It's mixing the two willy-nilly that gives me the Forrest Whitaker eye twitch.

Honestly I would prefer all the main things to be analog... with another screen to show the custom things. For someone who is going for robust the analog gives that feel, even though I imagine it makes no difference. I would prefer at least if the Speedo was on the right hand side and the screen left

edit: another thing is sometimes when you are parked in the shade the car thinks itā€™s dark and dims all the screens.... now you canā€™t see anything for a minute until it adjusts.

I would very much prefer the 100% digital dash that the Mustang has (even though Iā€™ve never used it). Something about a useless speedometer on the left and a digital tachometer just isnā€™t conducive to driving a manual.

Auto people could probably care less because they will be drinking their iced mocha-frappe single shot pumpkin espresso-latte to see the tach much less the road.

Iā€˜ll counter this with the fact that Iā€˜d be all over that analog setup. I need less screens in my life, not more. ?

I was under the impression that the gauge cluster was standard across the board. But Ford throws in the ā€œupgradedā€ on OB and up so I too have been confused on what actually means.
