Gauges will be eliminated, replaced by displays that can be configured to look like anything you want.

You want the layout to look like a 1952 Corvette dash? Fine

You want the layout to look like the Starship Enterprise? Fine

If you can visualize it, you can have it.

I see a few things that will be gone soon.

1. Mirrors. They will be obsolete and replaced by cameras.
2. AM/FM radios. All incoming music and news will be transmitted via satelite and/or downloaded by the internet.
3. Gauges. All data will be displayed via LED screens.
4. Keys.
5. Spare tires.
6. 12 volt adapters. No need for GPS add ons, radar detectors or cell phone chargers.

See the comments ar the link for more, like non regen breaking, steel frames and internal combustion engines.
