The equatorial rotational speed for the planet Mars is about 868.22 km/hr or 540 mph. This is far slower than the rotation of Earth (1674.4 km/hr), giving the two planets roughly the same period of rotation (Mars day = 24.6 Earth hours).

What is the rotational speed of Phobos?

Phobos, one of Mars' moons, has a rotational speed that allows it to complete one rotation on its axis approximately every 7 hours and 39 minutes. Interestingly, this rotation period is longer than its orbital period around Mars, which is about 6 hours and 9 minutes. As a result, Phobos rises in the west and sets in the east on Mars, a unique characteristic among celestial bodies.
