It should be noted that the first film and the second film are examples of the “first display portion” and “second display portion” in the present invention. - In the case of such a configuration, the operator of
cab 8 can visually observe an actual view of a work site including work implement 4 through the first film or the second film. Therefore, also in the case of such a configuration, visibility at the central portion of the front windshield is not decreased by the head-up displays. Therefore,work vehicle 101 is excellent in visibility for the actual view of the work site or the like. - Moreover, there may be employed the following configuration: the operator directly visually recognizes an image displayed on a display, rather than a virtual image. Specifically, a transparent first display (for example, a transmission type liquid crystal display) permitting transmission of incoming external light to
cab 8 therethrough may be used instead ofdisplay unit 73, and a transparent second display permitting transmission of incoming external light tocab 8 therethrough may be used instead ofdisplay unit 74. - It should be noted that each of the first display and the second display is disposed along
front pillar 92 such that the first display is located above the second display. In this case, the first display and the second display function as head-up displays. It should be noted that the first display and the second display are examples of the “first display portion” and the “second display portion” in the present invention. - Also in this case, visibility at the central portion of the front windshield is not decreased by the head-up displays as with the cases where
combiners work vehicle 101 is excellent in visibility for the actual view of the work site. - The embodiments disclosed herein are illustrative and are not limited to only the content above.
