Default Accessory Gauges for the C8

One of the things I would like to have seen in the new C8 is a gauge pack that gave you all the vital information you needed on one screen that is easy to monitor at a glance without toggling to multiple screens or squinting to see among other information. A good example of what I am talking about is the gauge pack on my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Wish I had this on my C7.

That would be a nice feature. But, who knows.

I like it a lot better than the platform on my C7.

In track mode you can customize the gauge cluster with four different readouts (2:00). Other screens look to have two customization readouts. She also mentions a "My Mode" which to me sounds like you can use customize it however you want and use any screen on any drive mode. So you could set "My Mode" to use tour or sport settings but show the track mode gauge cluster with the four customizable readouts.

The information is already available so it is just SMOP if it has not already been implemented.
