Yes warp drives are called warp drives because they "warp" time and space. You dont nescisarily "travel" fast but you manipulate space to cover greater distances in far less time.

I guess the devil is in the details. Using a worm hole is generally though of as using something that already existed and is compared to going through a tunnel.
Warp drive can be explained as folding space around the ship. The ship itself does not travel it manipulates space around it. |

That requires a cup of luke warm tea right? |
