A typical turbocharged V8 diesel engine might have an engine power of 250 kW (340 hp) and a mass of 380 kg (840 lb), [1] giving it a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 kW/kg (0.40 hp/lb). Examples of high power-to-weight ratios can often be found in turbines.
Engine power is the power that an engine can put out. It can be expressed in power units, most commonly kilowatt, pferdestärke (metric horsepower), or horsepower.In terms of internal combustion engines, the engine power usually describes the rated power, which is a power output that the engine can maintain over a long period of time according to a certain testing method, for example ISO 1585.
The company's Lexus ES 330 and Camry SE V6 (3.3 L V6) were previously rated at 225 hp (168 kW) but the ES 330 dropped to 218 hp (163 kW) while the Camry declined to 210 hp (160 kW). The first engine certified under the new program was the 7.0 L LS7 used in the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Certified power rose slightly from 500 to 505 hp (373 to ...
In 1986 Ticino switched to a system based on a calculation including engine size and weight. [24] The tax horsepower system remained in effect for seven cantons long into the 21st century; however, as of 2022, although quite likely earlier, Geneva was the only canton to still base road tax purely on tax horsepower.

The first IHC "Highwheeler" truck had a very simple air-cooled horizontally opposed two-cylinder engine with a 5-inch (130 mm) stroke and a 5-inch (130 mm) bore, and produced around 18–20 hp (13–15 kW). Displacement was 196 cubic inches (3.2 L). [2] In 1915 a new L-head water-cooled 201 cubic inches (3.3 L) inline-four engine appeared. [3]
