    I currently have engine rpm, oil temp, coolant temp, traction battery soc %, and aux battery Voltage displayed on the infotainment screen.

    There are more possibilities, relating to inverter temp, coolant pump rpm, etc, but what parameters would be desirable/useful?

    I'm using
    Car Scanner ELM OBD2 which lets me build a digital dash from hundreds of possible sensors.

    Amps going into and out of the pack and voltage difference between blocks in the pack. The higher the amps, the greater the voltage difference. And Dr. Prius app provides this data and more all on the same screen.
