      Vehicle Speed Vehicle speed Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph)
      Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph)      		 Actual vehicle speed
      • This is the current vehicle speed.
      • The vehicle speed is detected using the wheel speed sensors.
        • Vehicle speed data is delayed when it is displayed. Therefore, even if the vehicle speed listed in the freeze frame data is 0 km/h (0 mph), this does not always mean that the malfunction occurred when the vehicle was stopped.
