Nope, tried EXACTLY what you say and none of the up/down scrolls displays what that pic shows. And the only "scroll position" with the car pic is the one for tire temp...
While scrolling I do see individual displays for oil temp and some others but nothing for bat voltage or coolant temp.
Wonder if something else controls what is displayed when scrolling - perhaps linking the display to a particular mode, which I have NOT yet done

Are you on the 'tour' dash layout? If you are in sport it wont come up.

Done that too. Even tried Linking to Drive Mode and still no way to access that screen. Although I now notice in that pic that his car is an A6 whereas mine is a M7 (and a Z51)? Could that be the difference?
Put the dash in touring theme, then press the left arrow on the steering wheel, scroll to the 2nd from the top (PERF), press the right arrow. Then press the up or down arrow on the steering wheel until you get the display with the readout and the Corvette in the middle.
Had forgotten all about wanting to set this up. So I just went out and did it exactly like this and it worked just fine. I do however have an automatic six, but not sure if that makes a difference.

In the settings menu you can scroll until you get to the display theme and it is the "Touring" theme. It is done on the DIC screen with the steering controls and not the infotainment screen. My A6 car is a Z51 as well.

Roger that, I know to use the steering wheel controls.
It is beginning to look more and more like this screen may only be available on an A6 and not M7 car..
Can anyone with an M7 confirm they can get to that screen?
I have an M7 and can access it. You're doing it wrong. Get off the internet and get in your car. Put the battery charger on and just be patient. You can do it, man.

I've tried just about every iteration I can think of and I just can't find it. About the only thing I haven't tried when looking for this is actually starting the engine although I've been in run mode......

I'd try starting it. I don't think you can change the drive modes without it running and it may be linked to that. Once you get to "settings" I think it is one down from English/metric page. It should say "Display theme" and then scroll right and it is "touring".
