What is HP.h/100 miles and can I change it to miles per kwh?

Hi all, I've just taken delivery of my BYD Seal Excellence in the UK and trying to figure out the efficiency display. It currently shows this in HP.h/100 miles, firstly what does that mean? And secondly, can this be changed to miles per kwh? And lasty, the 'power' display shows in HP, does this stand for horsepower? I can't seem to find much info on this so any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

England.....moves to kW from HP but keeps Miles 🫢 In all seriousness, it sounds like a glitch; check/change your units in the settings to kW and see if that changes the HP.h weirdness.

Just change the units to kW on the car settings

It's a really crazy system, like one unit for both things ... because when you accelerate hard the HP (horsepower) goes to 313 / 530 ... like the car's power ... but when you drive on the road "normally" it shows the usage / 100km / 100 miles \- and it's just a converted unit from kW, as 1 kW = 1,36 HP, insane system. You can change it to kW in: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jbx93crptI&t=368s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jbx93crptI&t=368s)

Thanks! I've changed the units to kW and everything makes much more sense now. I had hunted round the menus for 'units' but must have missed it!
