Can I see Instant MPG & Eco/Power meter at the same time?

    I have a 2014 Prius C Two, so no second nav screen. :( ...I feel like it would be helpful to see the relationship of go power and current fuel efficiency on the same screen in real-time, but so far I haven't been able to figure out a way to get both of those on my screen. Would be awesome if I could toggle the "from Start" mpg between that and the instant mpg. I've heard you can do this on the Prius V, so why the heck I can't figure out how to do it on my C, I do not know!

    I'm thinking I need to buy a scan gauge, but was hoping someone here might have a suggestion to help that won't cost a hundred bucks or more... Also, if I do go with the Scan Gauge 2 or Scan Gauge E, any feedback or suggestions on how to best configure the displayed info to maximize my efficiency would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance everyone for your input!

    +1 for UltraGauge. I've had one in my 2013 C Two since new and really like having instant MPG, Tach, and Outside/Coolant temps all the time.

    Does ultragauge have Prius specific gauges or programmable gauges like X-Gauge to show hybrid voltage, state of charge, charge and discharge amperage, inverter coolant temp, hybrid battery temp, accelerator peddle position, mechanical brake force, fuel gauge, and so on?

    I think not. Plenty of built in selections but nothing hybrid-specific.
