How much faster is an airplane than a car?

This depends on the airplane and the car in question. However, here are some general comparisons for average commercial airplanes and cars:

Commercial Airplanes vs Cars:

- Cruising Speed:

- Commercial Airplanes: 450-600 mph (724-966 km/h)

- Cars: 65-85 mph (105-137 km/h)

- Top Speed:

- Commercial Airplanes: 500-650 mph (805-1050 km/h)

- Cars: 150-200 mph (240-320 km/h)

So, on average, commercial airplanes are around 5-7 times faster than cars when it comes to cruising speeds. However, there can be variations and exceptions to these numbers depending on the specific vehicles being compared.
