Let's look at it a different way …
These kettles are
technically 22.5 inches …. So,
technically that is 57.15 centimetres. They round-down the cm for marketing.
I have one of the new M/Ts. I don't consider it a Euro version, as they are sold right here in Canada. So, mine is a canuck version, made in the USA.
Everything should fit fine for your project. Post up some pics when completed.
