Gauges in a car's dashboard provide critical information about the vehicle's performance and condition. Common gauges include the speedometer, which indicates the current speed; the tachometer, which shows engine RPM; the fuel gauge, indicating the fuel level; and the temperature gauge, monitoring engine temperature. Additional gauges may include oil pressure, battery voltage, and various warning lights that alert the driver to potential issues. Together, these gauges help drivers make informed decisions to ensure safe and efficient vehicle operation.
