There's three speed categories as far as the EU is concerned:

- highway

- not highway, not city

- city

The 90-110km/h limits of regular roads tends to hit the sweet spot of engines more reliably than the 130+ of highways, a lot of smaller European car engines are uncomfortably close to redlining at 130+, especially older ones.
