Abstract: A method for presenting a new message received by a vehicle that includes a meter cluster display, an audio system, and an input device. The method includes receiving the new message at the vehicle, presenting a notification of the new message upon receipt of the new message by providing an audio alert via the audio system and displaying a visual notification on the meter cluster display, operating the meter cluster display to display a prompt for instructions to read the new message, operating the input device to receive the instructions to read the new message, and operating the audio system to audibly present the new message in accordance with the instructions.

Abstract: A mounting structure for mounting a cockpit module onto a vehicle body on a side facing a vehicle compartment is provided with a mount member mounting a cockpit module onto a vehicle body, a resilient member disposed between the vehicle body and the cockpit module, and a guide mechanism guiding the cockpit module along a given transfer path when the cockpit module is transferred to a mount position of the vehicle body. The guide mechanism guides the cockpit module in a way to allow the cockpit module to move downward of the vehicle body in an oblique direction through at least a partial segment of the given transfer path such that an own weight of the cockpit module is allowed to apply on the resilient member to press the resilient member between the vehicle body and the cockpit module.
