Abstract

In a method for displaying information in a motor vehicle, at least one two-dimensional object is displayed graphically in a first representation which shows one side of the object, and in a second representation which shows the other side of the object, with the aid of a display mounted in the motor vehicle, different information being shown on the respective sides of the two-dimensional graphical object, and the graphical object extending substantially over the entire size of the display in at least one direction in the first and/or second representation. The representation of the graphical object is altered as a function of a control signal such that the graphical object rotates from one side to the other side in a perspective representation on the display, the two-dimensional graphical object always being fully displayed, at least perspectively, during the rotation. A corresponding display device for a motor vehicle is provided for performing the method.
