"Where ere thou hast been, here or in yon world manifest? Canst thou tell what is, or what was, or what is to come? No thing shall last. Yet there are some things that will never change. History is written in blood, yet are battles really lost on the battlefield? Canst thou tell me where thou comest, and where thou goest, and what is, or what was, or what will be? For everything remains, AS IT NEVER WAS."

Actually, it will be made by Jeep, but good guess, I suppose.
Actually, it's made by AMG Transport Dynamics (Asklon.)
According to the Halo Encyclopedia (I think,) and the Race gametype in Halo Reach (I'm 100% certain,) the Warthog does have a top-speed of 125kph (78mph). However it also weight 3 metric tons, and is not designed for street racing. Remember the maneuverability of the Warthog; we're able to go from top speed to a hair-pin turn without flipping. Well, often. It's not meant to be driven on roads alone, it's an off-road vehicle. In such a vehicle 125kph is even dangerous. The horsepower - of which I was not able to find an official number - is likely to provide for the forward-mounted cable, support for the Vulcan LAAG, and the capability to transport the base 3 tons and whatever heavy gear it's hauling.
