Just below the display panel that shows what the engine/motor are doing (or the navigation display if you have that). It's to the right side, immediately next to the odometer button. It reads km/mph - small button approx. 3/4" square (as is the odo button)

I just changed my Prius C from km/h back to mph on the speedometer. Just after I filled my gas tank and the menu screen is on "Drive Information", I pushed the "trip" button and keep it depressed. The miles display will zero on the screen, but also change the Km/h back to Mph. If you press the button on and off you will see that the setting switches back and forth on the speedometer.

The YouTube video migration_jtfresh1 posted is the ONLY correct answer here. There is no button right on the dash of a Prius C. That is only a feature on the regular (larger) Prius models. It took me a half hour of pushing buttons and searching the internet to get mine changed after a mechanic messed it up. You have to be on a VERY SPECIFIC screen to do it.

With Speedometer and Multi-information screens both displayed. Press and release "Trip" button to switch the top portion of Multi-information screen between "Trip A", "Trip B", "ODO". HOLD "Trip" button in, once "ODO" displays. Speedometer display will start switching between MPH & Km/h modes. As the screen toggles between the two modes, RELASE the trip button to select and hold the mode you desire.

I offer this to clarify. It works for - Selecting Speedometer modes (MPH or Km/h): With Speedometer and Multi-information screens both displayed. Press and release "Trip" button to switch the top portion of Multi-information screen between "Trip A", "Trip B", "ODO". HOLD "Trip" button in. Once the "ODO" displays the Speedometer display will start switching between MPH & Km/h modes. As the screen toggles between the two modes, RELASE the trip button to select and hold the mode you desire.

I had this problem with my 2014 plug-in prius. The answer for me was a button on dash to the left of the steering wheel right next to cruise control and the gas-fill-port pop-open button.

The above answers were, to me, a bit confusing. On the regular Prius (not the C, mine is a 2008) it's a PHYSICAL BUTTON that says mph/kph. Pressing the button toggles between the two. When I read the first answer, I wasn't sure if the poster was talking about what was happening on the screen or below it...(perhaps the term "display panel" wasn't clear to me, as the panel is not only a display it has interactive buttons on it). Anyway, to be super super clear, on most Priuses, a physical button you may not not have noticed until you or someone else depressed it, switching mph to kph...NOT something that happens on your screen.

My 2014 Prius V had a “km/m” button beside the four way hazard button. My 2017 Prius V doesn’t have this easy button.
