    A vector quantity is defined by magnitude and direction. For example, we might say that a car has an average speed of 25 miles per hour. Its average velocity might be 25 miles per hour due east.

    Average speed is defined as the amount of movement that a object does in a given lapse of time.

    So if i say: the car moves with a speed of 10km/h

    This means that the car travels around 10km in the lapse of an hour, and here you can see that the speed is a scalar.

    Now, if i say; the car moves at 10km/h to south.

    We also have a direction, so we have now a vector, where the module of this vector is equal to the speed of the car.

    so a non-example of average speed is the velocity of something.
