All cars in europe have their power defined in kW on the registration certificate, hp is not mentionned.
It will make more sense in the future with electric vehicle.
Hp is used when speaking about cars, but it is a very misleading unit (bhp, metric hp, customary hp etc..) pretty much the same mess with imperial and us gallons.
- gambiting 7y agoSure, my registration certificate has a kW value, but I have never in my life heard anyone speak of kW output of an engine(except for electric cars) and I'm a rather passionate petrolhead.
- gallegojaime 7y agothe only famous counterexample is probably the Agera RS 1MW.
- mrguyorama 7y agoAt least Australia seems to be kW focused if Mighty car mods is anything to go by
