    Just got a 2017 Prius V Technology (Canadian version) and wondered the odometer can be changed from KmH to MPH. I found a setting but it only changed the L/100 to MPG.

    We bought the Walnut because it had the Tan interior. Love it.

    Miss the 2012 version where I just pressed a button on the dash.

    Yeah the way they blithely push the screens, and dump everything into them, has me in a slow burn. :cautious:

    You also might stop by the dealer you purchased the car from and see what they have to say about this...

    So does anyone know how to do this, change speedometer units on a fourth gen Prius? I've been browsing a pdf of the Owner's Manual for a bit, went through the speedo section, searched the whole documents for certain keywords, tried going page by page, so far to no avail.

    I don't have horse in this race, was just idly curious. Our's has the (simple) button on the dash, btw.

    That menu option isn't there on the 2017 Prius v 4 (USA) .

    It looked like he explicitly has that option in the menu, so there was no further comment needed.

    The USA one has no such description in the manual, nor in the actual in-car menu, as far as I can tell flipping through them.

    The Prius v is not a Gen 4. It is based on Gen 3.

    Does anybody really call a Prius v 4 (or 1, 2, 3, 5 trim levels) a Gen 4?

    Your profile says you have a 2017 Prius 2, so ...

    The OP originally posted this in the Gen 4 forum. Apparently they thought their Prius v was a Gen 4.
    The thread has been moved to Prius v.
