Default Canadian JK here - mabe some up north jk's can answer

My jeep comes with the Litres / 100 km settings. I found that i can switch to the miles / gallon. Question, when i switch to the miles / gallon, does the canadian jeeps display in US gallons or UK gallons. Anyone ???

It's in US gallons. Switch back and forth and see. If you're at around 14 L/100km that equals around 16 US mpg. If it were imperial it would be something ridiculous like 20 mpg.

By the way it's a marketing ploy for Canadian car dealers. I remember Jeep advertising the Patriot as a 40 mpg vehicle. It's 40 imperial mpg, which is only 33 mpg (still pretty good).
