Talk:Metrication in Italy

Exceptions to Metrication
I know this will no warrant an actual reason to have a "Metrication in Italy" article, but I found some exceptions to metrication in Italy. Here's a list of non-metric things in Italy.


 * Quintal is sometimes used for animal fodder in Italy. (But not in Southtyrol)
 * Display sizes for screens on television sets and computer monitors have their diagonal measured in inches.
 * Tire/tyre rim sizes are stated in inches.
 * The lengths of pipes are measured and sold in metres, but their diameters are measured in inches.
 * The power of gas-powered engines on cars are measured in horsepower, though electric engines are giving in watts.
 * Like in most countries, aviation (altitude and flight level) is measured in feet.
