Does the HUD on the MkV Supra show the tachometer and gear?

In BMWs only the M cars will show the tachometer and Gear which is a bummer because it’s super useful to have up there

Speed Traveling, Posted Speed Limit, You can access radio source.

It also will give warnings to stay in your lane and a red car-shaped object if a car is to close in the front or sides,
The dealer could not complete my Nav install so i don't know if it does nav or not, I would assume so.

It will show basic nav info when you are following a programmed route.

One thing that the owner’s manual also points out and that is somewhat annoying is that polarized sunglasses will basically make the HUD invisible (not completely if the brightness is turned up highly enough, but even then it’s very faint). I think it’s that the HUD is basically a reflection of the windshield and polarized glasses are meant to reduce/eliminate reflection... so the HUD is kind of worthless if it’s bright outside.

Don't know about polarized, but HUD also has brightness settings and even when it's bright out, I still can see it with no problem, no fading. I think they did a good job with HUD.
It'd really be nice if it did have shift light.. Nav guidelines are pretty good.

Yeah this isn’t a Supra-specific issue - it’s any HUD in any car. Polarized sunglasses unfortunately make the HUD almost impossible to see even if the brightness is cranked all the way up.

So is this all it shows or has it been updated?
