My Energy Information Screen is showing kms, whilst the car units are set at miles.
Is this a manufacturers fixed screen unit or can it be changed to miles?

Even more confusing is that you can have the navigation set to one set of units but the guessometer and dashboard in another set of units, so you can have 15 miles to go but the guessometer is showing an expected range of 15km. I soon learnt my 16 times table, and also that the speedometer on the Leaf always reads 10% over your actual speed, when the odometer managers to get it right.

Speed and distance traveled are akin to kW and kWh

That said I think 10% might be deliberate based on governmental advisory

Having read just now it seems they are not allowed to under report but allowed 10% over reporting. They err on side of caution

Is the speedometer over-reading a fudge to get us to drive a bit slower so that we get a bit more range at indicated speed limit speeds?

I think generally drive a bit slower
