My Taycan is confused between KM and miles. Which is it?

Noticed this on my two screens today, the main dash shows 130 miles to empty, but the battery shows 130 KM. Both cannot be right, right? How do I fix it?

It’s a known issue/oddity, if you have miles set, the number is miles and not km. There is no known fix, maybe porsche will fix it one day.

Oh thank you, will add that to the list of oddities!

Same deal here. At least it’s consistent. My left tube will occasionally show the driver assist in Kph too. I think she’s just giving us hints that it’s time to change to metric (and learn German).

what is that last line in the right tube showing? Is that your media feed? Can you define what is shown there? So much to learn!

Media, yes.

Settings>displays>Instr. cluster>Customized view

I thought the 15 pages of this thread had several useful tips. https://www.taycanforum.com/taycan-secret-tips-and-functions/

So the left tube shows 0 - 300km/h the rest is in mph?

Does this change, when you select a different view in the tube and then go back to this?

Perhaps Tesla envy. I saw this not long ago on one of my Teslas:

Oh no! Adding kilometers to a miles car! Disaster!

On a related note, didn't NASA lose a quarter of a billion dollar Mars probe because two different teams in navigation and thrust management used British vs. SI units?

Mine did this randomly last week and then reset itself the following day. Software gremlins

I had the same problem with the speedometer in the left tube showing KM vice MPH. I went into Settings in the PCM (system) switched the units to KM and then back to miles. That fixed the problem.
