Claim:
1. A vehicular display apparatus that is installed in a vehicle and provides a display image, comprising: a light source unit that emits laser light; a first optical system that projects a display image from the light source unit onto a first projection surface, and performs a first display of a virtual image of the display image so that the virtual image is discerned inside the vehicle; a second optical system that projects a display image from the light source unit onto a second projection surface, and performs a second display of a real image of the display image so that the real image is discerned inside the vehicle; and a switching section that switches the first display by the first optical system and the second display by the second optical system to selectively perform either the first display of the virtual image or the second display of the real image by changing an optical path of the laser light emitted by the light source unit, wherein a distance between the light source unit and the first projection surface is smaller than a distance between the light source unit and the second projection surface.
