How Many Horsepower is 187kw?

[OBennett]

187 kilowatts (kw) = 254.25 metric horsepower (PS). The following is an introduction to related content about car engine horsepower: The meaning of horsepower: Horsepower is a commonly used unit for measuring power in engineering technology. It was proposed by James Watt. 1 horsepower is approximately equal to 735 watts. Generally, it refers to metric horsepower rather than imperial horsepower. 1 horsepower equals the work of completing 75 kilogram-force·meters in 1 second, which is also equal to 0.735 kilowatts, or metric horsepower. 1 imperial horsepower equals 550 foot-pounds force/second, equal to 76 kilogram-force·meters/second, or 0.746 kilowatts. Metric horsepower: Metric horsepower, also known as PS, is entirely artificially defined to be very close to the value of imperial horsepower. It is defined that 1 metric horsepower is the work of completing 75 kilogram-force·meters in 1 second. That is: 1 metric horsepower = 75 kilogram-force·meters/second = 735 watts.
