It was traveling at 22 nautical miles per hour.
It's top speed was 24 Knots, Which is about the same as 28 Mph (45kph) on land, But it never reached that speed on it's maiden voyage.
This question can be taken two ways:
What was the Titanic's top speed?
The Titanic was designed to achieve a top speed of 24 knots (nautical miles per hour), which converts to 27.6 miles per hour and 44.4 kilometers per hour.
Titanic's sea trials were cut short, so no maximum speed test was performed. On her maiden voyage, prior to striking the iceberg, Titanic made a speed of 22.5 knots (25.9 mph, 41.7 Km/h)
How quickly did the Titanic sink?
About 2 hours elapsed between the time the ship struck the iceberg (12:40 AM, 15 April 1912) and the time the ship disappeared beneath the waves of the north Atlantic Ocean (2:20 AM, 15 April 1912).
Author Joseph Conrad once famously and laconically summed up the story of the Titanic this way: "We know what happened: The ship scraped her side against a piece of ice, then sank after floating for two hours and a half, taking a lot of people down with her."
Titanic's top speed was 23 knots, the equivalent to 26.47 mph, but she hit the berg at 22 knots. (about 25 mph).
- When it hit the ice berg, it was going 22.5 knots.
- At full speed she could go up to23 knots.
