What is the horsepower of a 1.2L engine?

[Eleanor]

1.2L engine produces approximately 86 horsepower. The following are classifications of horsepower: 1. Metric horsepower: Also known as PS (Pferdestärke), this is a completely artificial measurement designed to closely approximate imperial horsepower. It is defined as the power required to lift 75 kilograms one meter in one second. That is: 1 metric horsepower = 75 kgf·m/s = 735 watts. 2. Imperial horsepower: Used in countries like the UK and US, 1 imperial horsepower equals 550 foot-pounds per second, or 745.7 watts. In the late 18th century, British physicist James Watt (1736–1819) defined horsepower as the work required to lift 1000 pounds by 33 feet in one minute to measure the power of newly invented steam engines. This became known as imperial horsepower, represented by the abbreviation HP.
