minus-squareGranixo@feddit.cllinkfedilinkarrow-up24·edit-22 years agoOk, i’m gonna be that guy. Newton meters (Nm) is a measure of torque. While horse power (HP) is a measure of engine power. You obviously cannot convert one into the other because they mean different things. Also, when EVs eventually become the mayority, the kilowatt (kW) is gonna take over as the new standard for measuring engine power.
