About MPH and KPH (km/h)
MPH (miles per hour) is the standard speed unit in the United States, the United Kingdom, and a handful of other countries. KPH (kilometers per hour, more often written km/h or kmh) is used by the rest of the world. The two are linked by the international definition of the mile: 1 mile equals exactly 1.609344 kilometers, so 1 mph equals exactly 1.609344 kph. To convert in your head, multiply by 1.6. For more precision, use the calculator above or the conversion table below. Common road speeds: 30 mph = 48 kph, 50 mph = 80 kph, 60 mph = 97 kph, 70 mph = 113 kph, 100 mph = 161 kph.
