Default XC40 Mph to Kph

I’m planning a trip to France & Spain and hoped the Speedo would change automatically to Kph when entering France or is there an option to change from mph to kph. I’ve looked in settings and Trip but can’t find a tourist kph setting ? Help. Thanks

Select a unit standard:

Metric - kilometres, litres and degrees Celsius.

Default Tourist alternative speedometer in trip computer

I know about the unit setting menu - but in the trip computer, there should be an option to change the central digital speedometer in the driver display from mph to km/h (or vice versa). This option has disappeared - has anyone else had this problem?

No, I’ve just tried it on mine with no problems. Speedo now showing speed in kilometres.

No, I think tw-wabo is thinking of the so called "tourist" speedo setting, within the app menu in the driver display (converts not all units but speedometer only...) and I think this option is not available anymore. I remember I used to have it on my ex XC60.
