mph
Dashboard dial reading
Mph is the abbreviation for miles per hour, a unit measuring speed or velocity.
Speed limits, wind speeds, and vehicle performance are commonly expressed in mph: The highway speed limit is 65 mph.
In countries using the metric system, kilometers per hour (kph) serves the same function.
