Displaying KPH

Just upgraded my Freelander 2 to a 2011 Range Rover Sport and would like to know how to change the digital speed display from MPH to KPH for when travelling in France/Europe?

This is a question I was going to ask the forum...I have looked through the handbook to no avail..bit disappointing if this is not possible as there are no KPH increments on speedo itself... Sad .

Even more disappointing as the retail price for my car was the thick end of £60K...how do you guys go on when travelling abroad, hope its not a case of sticking an KPH overlay over the speedo!! Rolling Eyes

Reminds me of my old parallel import bikes...

Thanks for all the replies. I had seen how to do this for the temperature but had missed the trip computer display change. I see there are three options:

- MPH/MPG
- MPH/litres per Gall
- KPH/ litres per gall

What would have been ideal would have been KPH/MPG as an option.

Most folks driving on the continent either want the KPH shown on the speedo dial with MPH or a second digital display showing the KPH speed.

I know the approximation in France is 90 kph is 60 mph and 130 kph is 80 mph but it is nice to see a display for this.

KPH/MPG would be good, but you have to put up with KPH and fuel consumption in litres if you want the digital KPH speed. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled
