Looks like a Fisher Price steering wheel tbh
Except Fisher Price would last a hundred times longer than a Lancia
Fisher Price mixed with 90s Sony
Why would anyone think it’s a good idea to put a pocket calculator’s worth of buttons in the center of a steering wheel?
The AC and C buttons were nice nod to the calculator inspired design.
Physical buttons over touchscreen mess we have now
True!
Same thought here. It’s nice that the horn, signal lights, and highbeams are bigger, but wow do I appreciate the ergonomics of conventional control stalks.
It was a different time. They also chose to get this haircut.
that ash tray can hold SO many ciggies.
How is the screen behind the wheel supposed to work? What is it indicating, and (more importantly) does it require me to follow the individual lines? Because that would be great to do when you’re going 100 kph
Something like this:

This is from an actual Lancia production car from the 90s (the Dedra with a optoelectronics dash).
the gauge cluster here shows the gear selection on the bottom left, tachometer to the right of that (“10” for 1000 rpm), and the speed in kph on the right. weird no doubt but it looks like there’s digital readouts on top for the RPM and speed so you can ignore the curving lines gauge things
I imagine when the car is running, only one of the lights in that wonderful mess is lit up at once. One for engine speed, the other for road speed.
The dash kind of looks like a prop from Star Trek TNG.
Lol, bad clock spring in that thing renders half the car inoperable.
