Which unit is which?
- hp and bhp are horsepower at the engine; UK tuners write bhp.
- PS is metric horsepower, used by European and Japanese makers: 600 PS is about 592 hp. Mercedes rates the C63 S at 510 PS, about 503 hp.
- kW is the official unit on European papers: 300 kW is about 402 hp.
- kgf·m is the torque unit on many Korean spec sheets: 40 kgf·m is about 392 Nm or 289 lb-ft.
A figure measured at the wheels (whp) is a different thing, not a different unit: see the crank to wheel calculator and why tuners' numbers don't match.
