    Is there an easy way to change the speedometer display from miles per hour to kilometer per hour?

    Yes! There's a push button on left side of the dash just above the clock setting buttons which are above the on/off power switch. it toggles between Km/H and MPH.

    In Canada and the US, yes. We have a MPH-KM/H button. Otherwise, not that I know of.

    Yep. This is something that annoys me to no end.

    You press then button and the speedometer readout changes from KM/h to MPH... that's good... but the rest of the information stays in metric??? :frown:
    I wish Toyota would have given us something more useful this time on the 2010. Something that would convert the FE, distances and fuel volumes - at least FE and distances. I don't care about the temperature and other items but the three I mentioned would be nice to have. :frown:

    Cheers;
