A vehicle meter indicator device comprising: a rotation speed sensor adapted to detect a rotation speed (Ner) of an internal combustion engine; display data generation means adapted to generate, at every given updating cycle (Tf), information based on the rotation speed (Ner) as display data; and a meter unit adapted to show the display data as an image each time the display data generation means generates the display data, wherein the display data generation means generates display data based on the latest rotation speed (Ner) detected by the rotation speed sensor at every updating cycle (Tf) and causes the meter unit to show the generated display data as an updated image; characterized in that the vehicle meter indicator device is adapted to perform the following functions at every updating cycle (Tf): if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is greater than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit, the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount smaller than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; and if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount larger than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on updated display data corresponding to the speed as currently shown on the meter unit reduced by the threshold value (ΔNeth), the updated display data being virtual data. a rotation speed sensor adapted to detect a rotation speed (Ner) of an internal combustion engine; display data generation means adapted to generate, at every given updating cycle (Tf), information based on the rotation speed (Ner) as display data; and a meter unit adapted to show the display data as an image each time the display data generation means generates the display data, wherein the display data generation means generates display data based on the latest rotation speed (Ner) detected by the rotation speed sensor at every updating cycle (Tf) and causes the meter unit to show the generated display data as an updated image; characterized in that the vehicle meter indicator device is adapted to perform the following functions at every updating cycle (Tf): if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is greater than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit, the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount smaller than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; and if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount larger than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on updated display data corresponding to the speed as currently shown on the meter unit reduced by the threshold value (ΔNeth), the updated display data being virtual data. if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is greater than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit, the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount smaller than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on the latest detected rotation speed; and if the latest detected rotation speed (Ner) is smaller than the rotation speed (Nem) corresponding to the image shown on the meter unit by an amount larger than a threshold value (ΔNeth), the meter unit shows an updated image based on updated display data corresponding to the speed as currently shown on the meter unit reduced by the threshold value (ΔNeth), the updated display data being virtual data.
