Kilometers?

27,000 miles = 43,452 kilometers


Push the little button by the speedo for a few seconds. It will go back to American standard.

I used to send cell phone pics and videos of the speedo on my car with the mph switched to kph to friends while cruising down the highway. They thought I was doing 150-160mph but was really only going 150-160 kph.
