The fastest cephalopod is the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris), capable of reaching speeds of up to 25 miles per hour (40 kilometers per hour) in short bursts. This impressive speed is achieved through a jet propulsion mechanism, where water is expelled rapidly from their bodies. Other fast cephalopods include certain species of squid, like the blacktip reef squid, but the common octopus holds the record for speed among cephalopods.
