160 is the operating speed of LHB coaches means LHB coaches can also run above 160 but due to safety concerns it's regulated at 160. Now talking about Talgo, their coaches are much lighter than LHB coaches so they can easily run at 180 km/hr without any risk. Infact, Talgo's next trial will be done at 220 Km/hr acc. to some English News Papers.
