Also, I could swear I saw an early bronco walk around video that showed a different cluster. It was a smaller screen with an analog gauge on both sides on the screen. I cannot find it at all now. I must be remembering wrong.
Your not wrong I think that’s the screen on the lower trims a d the high trim gets that fancy screen they showed when switching goat modes it has the cool graphics I hope my black diamond comes with that screen but not holding my breath

I'm still hoping it means we get an all digital cluster like the F-150 because that thing is sexy. The current pre-production Bronco one is ugly as a mule's ass.
It’s beautiful. You just don’t know it yet.

I stand by my comment that its a mule's ass. They should have just made everything MPH in the cluster. Perhaps an analog wave that shows my MPH or a person sprinting on the screen with a big MPH above their head.

There is a lot of info floating around. Here are two pictures from the thread that included some BD pictures at a dealer. Only one analog speedometer on the left in the BD with the standard IP.

Am I wrong, or does every model show the screen as part of the gauges? So, presumably an analog tach, and then a screen with speedo and other info on a screen... like some VWs have.

I didn’t even know about this "high-level instrument panel", but now am thinking it’s what is shown in B&P, and others will just get basic gauges... another mis leading, “well we did say pre-production unit show in fine print”...

Cool looks like it will have the cool graphics on the screen when switching goat modes I got the mid pakage on my black diamond not sure if that helps though

Yeah, i hope that is not that dull light grey background all the time and at least allows it to be blue based like the picture in the post above:

I think there was a couple incidents of internet reporting using the incorrect b-roll and showing the Sport dash when talking about the big Bronco.

Did it look like this?

When the 2015 Mustang launched it had a "Premium interior" option which was $685 and they gave you zero information about what it was....

Turns out it was soft-touch materials on the tops of the door cards, soft-touch materials where your knees would touch the tunnel and a softer arm wrest material.

Now 6 years later that is built into the cost of the "Premium" package and identifies it as "premium door trim" instead of a stand alone option.

Now, i'm not saying exactly what it is for Bronco, but I would hazard a guess that it's soft-touch materials in a few places such as the leading areas of the dash, lower dash, etc, instead of a different instrument panel.

Yes that is what I could be remembering seeing.

I’m betting on the soft touch elements as well. The instrument cluster from everything I’ve seen looks the same in all trims, however the dash on the big bend looks like hard plastic, while the close up pics of the OBX dash look textured, like a rugged cloth material.

yea, that's kinda "meh" that light gray looks like crap. I would rather regular gauges if that's the view. I would actually prefer a regular speedo and tach w digital in the middle like the 15-20 F150 Lariat
