In this manner, can cars go as fast as the speedometer?
There's a marketing pitch to it." Although cars with high-horsepower engines can come close to the top speedometer speeds, most are limited by engine control computers. That's because the tires can overheat and fail at higher speeds. Tires now common on mainstream cars often can't go above 130 mph or they could fail.
One may also ask, why are cars made to go faster than the speed limit? The reason why cars can go so fast is because the engines we have now are a lot more efficient and powerful than say 100 years ago. Most cars even that aren't designed to go fast can easily break 100mph, thus the need for limiters, because their bodies weren't designed for those speeds on many models.
