Hey, I was wondering for those who picked up a new car recently if they had the new display?

I heard it looks different, can you confirm what is different besides the curve bar?

Does it still show the speed and current gear at the same time?

Does it also have the NAVI screen?

Thanks

Yep, still has all of those, the curved rpm bar is the only major change. I posted a pic of the one in my coupe if you want a better look:

is it not possible to see an rpm bar in the 2016 models that already came with the heads up display?

It's a flat RPM bar with MPH(KPH) and current gear.

As vaelin said for MY16 it's the flat rpm bar, MY17 is an 'rpm curve' instead.

Grip
Hey Trim105, I am new to the forum and I would like to ask your help to clarify some questions that I have about the C63 amg coupe. I've always had Audis Quattro and I am used to the amazing grip from the 4WD. I am considering now ordering a C63 coupe but I know that it is only Rear Wheel Drive. How are you finding the grip and traction so far? Is it easy to lose control of the car because of the huge power? Do you feel safe when the road is wet and when winter comes? Thank you very much Trim for your help.

i have a my16 but I don't see that bar option anywhere, just the speed, nav, speed limit. How do you activate it?

For mine, in the multifunction display (the one between the speedo and rev counter) go to: settings - - > Head Up Display. You can change brightness, position and display content from there.

I find the 16 model HUD with the straight bar to be more appealing.
