I think almost all passenger vehicle HUDs are displays in the dashboard that are reflected off the windshield - I suspect they also sometimes put a lens on it so that it appears to be further away than it actually is, because it might cause major headaches for people to frequently change focus from the road to the windscreen.

I remember test driving a Yaris, which was the first car I'd driven with a digital speedo. That was incredibly distracting, because I kept trying to get exactly on the speed limit. It was actually dangerous.

I drove a Renault with one of these. You get used to it. After a few days, it is no longer distracting. Actually, I found the usual analogue gauges distracting when switching back!

Mercedes now uses a high resolution screen that displays an analogue speedo gauge. That is an interesting combination!
