Dashboard
By dashboard, we mean the panel for road vehicles.
The dashboard is basically a 'command bridge.' On modern cars (since 1990), you'll find some controls for the climate or the radio, along with the steering wheel and the instrument panel.

Context
Besides these details, you can also find the drawer in front of the passenger, which, however, is not considered part of the dashboard.
