Best Answer

it depends upon the cars cc(s) if the car is of 100cc it means it is of 1 horsepower if 200cc its 2 horsepower so like that you can identify the horsepower of an car OK

Actually, CC stands for Cubic Centimeters and has nothing whatsoever to do with converting that number to horsepower. A 500 cc engine may have 25, 35 or 55 horsepower depending on how it is tuned and if it has racing parts installed. My Can AM 800 CC has 67HP. It will smoke anything in it's class.

How did the phrase horse power come about?

as you may know, horses used to be used. One horses power was described as 1 horse power, 2 is two horse power and so on, but as the world progeressed, so did technology and cars have lots of power. Still, things were decribed in horse power. So if youir car has 267 horse power, for example, this means that it would take 267 horses to have that much power that the car has in one car. (Corret me if that is wrong, thank you, hope this helped :)
