Larger SoC Gauge

For some of use who do not have great eyes at seeing it without having to look down and focus on it I would appreciate it if the SoC gauge could be made larger.

Agreed. Lots of stuff should be bigger...such as the time and temp. They moved them from the far right to the left.
What the 25 year old programmers who created this at a PC on their desks don't seem to get is that you want to be able to see it with a glance and not have to focus on it. The dumb thing is that the top row of icons and time and temp have a background that varies based on the underlying map. Sometimes these small fonts are close to unreadable due to text or other objects on the map behind.
This is a very poor design choice...but very fixable.

They should write the interface so that the whole display could be shown in a larger font size if desired, just like on phones. (Yes, the map would show a little less, but so what?)

It also would help with a directional tilt toward the driver. Looking at it from an angle makes viewing these smaller fonts difficult.

I agree with the ability to enlarge the other fonts. It's like the default on a Mac. If you don't have better than 20/20 you can't can't see much of anything on the screen other than icons without changing the fonts or the screen resolution to enlarge them.
