== == From what I remember, impulse speed was used to dock and leave a space station; so it would make sense that this form of movement has a low velocity (try parking a car at 80mph). Warp speed is supposedly faster than the speed of light, I think... So warp speed is faster than impulse speed. Warp speed, as above, is faster than light, whereas impulse speed is used to move around within a sector of space. Warp speed is much, much faster.

According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, which uses the Okuda warp scale, impulse speed is 1/4 lightspeed, or 270 million km/h. Warp 1 is lightspeed, or 1078 million km/h. Any warp factor is considerably faster than impulse (or "sublight") engines.
