To be fair, most "mechanical" (analog/pointer) gauge only use 2/3 the face or 240 degrees of sweep, and 0-80 isn't 1/4 full sweep (90 deg), it's more like 1/3 or 120 degrees. So 80mph is *half* the "normal" 240 degree sweep range.

But surely everyone goes by the digital readout anyway...

At least major hashmarks are 20mph increments with 10mph sub-increments and 5mph sub-sub-incrrements, unlike some Porsches which have 25mph major increment with 5mph sub-increments, pretty dumb...
