How it works

HP = Torque (lb·ft) × RPM / 5,252. This constant comes from the definition: 1 HP = 33,000 ft·lb/min = 550 ft·lb/sec. Metric horsepower (PS) = 0.9863 HP. Kilowatts = HP × 0.7457. Peak HP occurs at higher RPM; peak torque at lower RPM—the crossover is always at 5,252 RPM. Dyno-measured wheel horsepower is 10–20% less than engine (flywheel) HP due to drivetrain losses.
