With Update 9.15, you can look forward to brand-new UI for viewing your tanks and their statistics, or tanks you have your eye on. You'll be able to check out vehicle stats according to concealment, gun depression and elevation, and more. Plus, you'll be able to see as-it-happens changes according to mounted equipment, modules and active Crew skills.
See Tank Stats in a Whole New Way
In 9.15, you'll be able to select how to view vehicle stats in the game settings. You can select the previous format if you wish, or you could use the new one. Just open the game settings and check/uncheck "Display Simple Technical Characteristics in Garage."
Simple Technical Characteristics organizes the advanced vehicle stats in five groups: firepower, survivability, mobility, oncealment and recon. See below for more details:
Gun and aiming parameters:

- Concealment of a motionless vehicle (before and after a shot)
- Concealment of a moving vehicle (before and after a shot)
Describes how effective the vehicle is at spotting enemies for the team.

Each group of technical characteristics has values indicating their effectiveness.
Find Out How Varying Factors Affect Tank Stats
Dynamic technical characteristics change depending on mounted equipment, the level of a certain Crew member's skill, consumables, etc., and you'll be able to see how these change a tank's stats. For example, once all Crew members are fully trained in the "Brothers-in-Arms" Perk, you'll be able to see the effect it has.
Pop-up tips for modules, equipment and consumables will also change, providing information about each module or piece of equipment and how the vehicle's stats will change after using them. This can help you make more informative decisions about what to mount on your tanks! Plus, changes to tips for shells will also help you understand each shell's armor-piercing cababilities at a distance.
