    Tell the inspectors to multiply times 0.62. They should even already have a calculator app on their phone that can perform this type of equation.:ROFLMAO:

    Odd that they make you do that to pass inspection. In Canada tons of people import vehicles from USA - newer ones have to conform to canadian standards and sometimes need modifications, but they never make you change ODO units. Most people can do the math in either direction.

    EDIT

    I realize you are talking about speedo not odometer. Our Prius' have a handy KM/MI conversion button in North America (perhaps the Euro versions have that as well). I am assuming the Japanese one doesn't have that?

    Tylko wymiana licznika kilometrów dla wersji i korekcji przebiegu.
