Mechanical Horsepower is used in the US and sometimes in the U.K. in automotive industry and defined as 1 hp = 33,000 ft·lbf/min = 0.74569987158 Kilowatts (kW). Please note that it's about 1.4% more than metric horsepower .US hp is used on domestic market, that means that American cars, SUVs and trucks sold outside of the United States can be marketed with metric specifications including metric horsepower.
