Default speed of 10mph

Hi Experts,

My Lexus RX330 travels at 10mph even when I do not have my foot on the gas (on a level road). Is that not too much? Id expect it to be close to 5mph only. What do you think?

Thanks !

Why do you expect it to be 5 mph?

My RX330 on idle runs not faster than 5-10 Km/Hr
If you have normal idle RPM, it looks like transmission doesn't downshift when you release gas pedal.
