Yes, there can be speech delay without autism.
Impaired hearing or chronic hearing infections can result in speech delay. A lower than average IQ can result in speech delay. Another possible cause is a lack of oral interpersonal experiences (e.g. parents unavailable to spend time with the child such as when working long hours or one is extremely ill, mute parents, isolation due to a medical condition). Other conditions that can cause speech delay include tongue or other mouth problems, brain lesions, or seizures.
