    Well i'm going to be buying a prius over the boarder (i'm in canada) and was curious about the trip meter. I will driving pretty exclusively using the km/h on the speedo and was wondering if the trip odometer can display kilometres as well. I know that the regular odometer will display miles no matter what but what about the trip ones?

    All odometers are in miles only for the American Prius (and the temp stays in F).

    I wish the miles/km button was more configurable so that I could get C on the display as well as km on the odometer.

    That said I'm sure you can figure out how to get into the set-up system and reprogram it to be km based car. Or maybe ask your service guy?

    I wishi could take it to a service guy and have that done. I heard that many american cars are a simple service switch or something.

    I don't think these can be changed.
