A method for providing a display in a vehicle and the vehicle with a display device

A vehicle (100) receives a script with a command for graphic figures of a display and an instruction for reading out a data value to a memory of the vehicle. The script is executed by an interpreter (22) so that the data value from the memory (12, 14, 16) is read out and a display on a display device (24) is provided, wherein the graphic design of the display is determined by the script and a determined by the data value includes partial representation. Through the use of scripts particularly high flexibility is given in the graph.
