I've had a hired Ascent hatch up over 200kph (just before hitting the redline), but many people argue there's a speed cut at 180kph so I dunno how accurate the speedo was...
Btw this was done in the NT on an open road (no speed limits )

160kph was my cruising speed at the time (a little under 5,000rpm if I remember correctly)... In 5th you get ~ 30k's for every 1,000rpm, so;
3,000rpm = 100kph
4,000rpm = 130kph & so on...
Redline isn't till 6,500rpm & my max speed was hit just before redline as stated above...
