The OLED is paper-thin, and its curvature positions the three displays for optimal visibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The 38-inch (965 mm) diagonal display screen is made up of the P16 Instrument Panel Cluster Control Module as the primary display, which is a 14.2-inch (360 mm) diagonal OLED display and has the module attached to the back. The secondary portion of the 38-inch (965 mm) diagonal display screen is the A22 Radio Controls, which consists of a 7.2-inch (182 mm) diagonal OLED Touchscreen display on the left and a 16.9-inch (429 mm) diagonal OLED infotainment screen on the right.
