What is Horspower & Torque?
Learning about cars for beginners part 7:
Horsepower and Torque.
You see these words get thrown around often
But what are they?
No, 1 horsepower is not the power that one horse can produce.
It is a unit used to measure the power of an engine.
In simple terms, it’s how much work your engine can do.
As a simple rule, the more horsepower a car has, the faster it can go in a straight line.
Torque is the twisting force produced by an engine. You can think of it as strength.
Horsepower shows how quickly an engine exerts that strength.
So, horsepower sets the top speed, and torque gives it the oomph to get there.
