Edit: I realize you're talking about the picture in the GP comment (it's a Mercedes dash), below I'm talking about the UI in the article (the VW Atlas);

It's pretty bad UI, the 2 bars are thinner than the scale lines, and the fuel pump icon with the arrow seems to be just slapped on there not aligned to anything.

I don't really understand how. I think it's pretty big and obvious.
