However, when it comes to understanding both terms, plenty of people, even car enthusiasts can get it mixed up. If horsepower is a standard measurement in all vehicles, what does torque stand for? We\u2019ll explain it below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is Horsepower<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28046\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-1216392171.jpg\" alt=\"Sports car with high horsepower\" width=\"2448\" height=\"1224\" \/>Horsepower, similarly to torque is a measurement unit used to indicate how much power an engine can output. It is also measured to determine how fast work can be done by an engine. In theory, the higher the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Xym2XNezZ-w\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">horsepower<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the more power is sent to the wheels and the faster a car can go. However, there are other elements that play a role in your horsepower such as a vehicle\u2019s weight. A heavier car needs more horsepower to move &#8211; if both cars produce the same horsepower, the lighter one out of the two will accelerate the fastest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28044\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-465884818.jpg\" alt=\"How to check your vehicle's horsepower\" width=\"2121\" height=\"1414\" \/>In addition, your vehicle drivetrain also plays a factor in your horsepower output. Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) cars suffer from an issue called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M99VWTFmNuU\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">drivetrain loss<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This can be attributed to the mechanical works of the vehicle. Once an engine dishes out energy, it gets transferred to the flywheel, transmission, driveshaft, and axels; losing a handful amount of power in the process. Generally, manufacturers display an engine\u2019s horsepower on paper and not at the wheels. To measure the true horsepower of your vehicle, it\u2019s best to take it to a dynamometer test at a tuning workshop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is Torque<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28043\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/GettyImages-157286698-scaled-1.jpg\" alt=\"Torque to tow vehicles\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1429\" \/>On the other hand, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caranddriver.com\/news\/a15347872\/horsepower-vs-torque-whats-the-difference\/#:~:text=Mathematically%2C%20horsepower%20equals%20torque%20multiplied,at%20higher%20rpm%2C%20or%20both\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">torque<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a measuring unit used to determine the amount of force applied to rotate an object around an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.khanacademy.org\/science\/physics\/torque-angular-momentum\/torque-tutorial\/a\/torque#:~:text=What%20is%20torque%3F,Torque%20is%20a%20vector%20quantity.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">axis<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Torque has a correlation with the number of revolutions per minute (<\/span><b>RPM<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) it produces. The higher the torque, the higher the RPM.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28045\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-961804664-scaled-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1350\" \/>Torque is generated from the engine pistons reciprocating up and down on the engine\u2019s crankshaft. This motion causes the crankshaft to rotate or spin rigorously. The power is then sent to the wheels through the engine transmission and the drivetrain. Often, this gets confused with either one being the latter when it comes to measuring the output of a vehicle and commonly confused with horsepower.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bonus: What is Revolutions per Minute (RPM)\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-28051 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-1362931857.jpg\" alt=\"Horsepower vs torque\" width=\"2121\" height=\"1414\" \/>Revolutions per minute (RPM) is an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.omnicalculator.com\/physics\/angular-frequency#:~:text=Angular%20frequency%20is%20a%20scalar,by%20a%20factor%20of%202%CF%80.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">angular frequency<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> used to measure how an object can rotate around its axis per minute. For example, if an object spins around its axis for one minute, it has 60 RPM as there are sixty seconds in a minute. In car engines, RPM is measured by how fast an engine\u2019s crankshaft rotates in a minute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28049\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-1354202764.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2309\" height=\"1299\" \/>RPM is usually shown to the driver through the tachometer installed in the car and is increased the longer the driver keeps their foot down on the throttle.

While both are important factors to indicate your vehicle performa<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nce, these terms are closely related but have <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmax.com\/articles\/horsepower-vs-torque-explained\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">slight differences<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s best to consider both numbers in your car if you\u2019re looking for performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When choosing a car, horsepower is a good reference for how much a car can dish out in acceleration but torque will be showing you how much RPM the car is capable of producing when you hit the throttle. For example, a sports car has high horsepower, yet it struggles to tow a trailer. A truck, on the other hand, has a lower horsepower, but it can tow a trailer due to its high torque engine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28050\" src=\"https:\/\/carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-1359921702.jpg\" alt=\"Car performing a burnout\" width=\"2309\" height=\"1299\" \/>In simple terms, torque is the capacit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">y to do work, horsepower is how quickly a task can be accomplished. That\u2019s why the performance of sports cars is usually measured in horsepower while trucks and other utility vehicles are measured in torque.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which is More Important if You\u2019re Looking for Power<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, horsepower should be what you\u2019re looking for in a sports car, and torque should be used for heavy-duty vehicles like trucks. A sports car is akin to a marathon athlete while a truck is akin to a heavy-lifter. A marathon athlete cannot lift 80 kgs, but a heavy-lifter can, and it goes vice versa for running a marathon. If a car has too much torque, the driver would have difficulty controlling the vehicle when they hit the throttle. Similarly, if a car has too much horsepower, it would be too fast and unstable for public roads.
