Americas Distance Units toggle

[Zenadier]

I drive to Canada from Montana periodically and I cannot set distance units from miles to kilometers. I've seen photos of the distance units toggle on a few vehicles.

Distance Unit option is not available on my Grenadier. It ruins the drive when I visit BC or AB.

** When will distance units toggle become available to North American Grenadiers? **

I understand that the distance units option was available on early (North American) Grenadiers, but overwritten (deleted) owing to one software update or another. This is major pitfall for me. Please, I need distance units.

After thinking about this a bit, consider the following -

What if my sold-in-America Grenadier had the distance units toggle enabled? I would drive around in the States showing mph in compliance with the law. Upon visiting Canada, I would drive around Alberta showing kph in compliance with the law.

Solution 1
I drive 700 MILES to my Ineos dealer. Upon arrival, I sign a waiver stating that I am content to run my Grenadier in outlaw mode with respect to distance units. I take full responsibility for operating my Grenadier this way. The dealer then installs appropriate software to re-enable distance units on my Grenadier. Then I drive 700 MILES home showing mph.

Solution 2
Ineos Automotive sells me the full-on factory diagnostics, dealer-shop laptop/vehicle interface/software/lifetime ID credentialed package. I stay home (1400 fewer miles on Moreli). I install appropriate software to re-enable distance units on my Grenadier. I drive around thinking I'm a rebel; eyes peeled for the law.

I want the distance units toggle.

Not sure which option is more comical

While I like your thinking - it's quite logical - but a waiver of any sort would open the chance of litigation at some point so IA wouldn't go for that. On the second front, IA's grip on its IP/software is tighter than a clam's ass.
