About BHP Check
What BHP is my car?
Car performance is one of the most crucial aspects for buyers these days. Car BHP is the acronym used to describe Horsepower (HP) or Brake Horsepower (BHP), which determines the power and total output of an engine. A vehicle’s BHP is measured after the engine has fed the other working parts of a vehicle, including the turbocharger, water pump, alternator, or gearbox, and is measured via the wheels rather than the flywheel.
To find the horsepower rating of a vehicle, you can check the owner’s manual or utilise an online BHP check.

What is the difference between BHPand HP?
There is a very slight difference between these terms; ‘Brake Horsepower’ (BHP) considers power loss due to friction, whilst ‘HP’ does not. BHP is a measurement of power output at the crankshaft under specific conditions, whereas HP is a measurement of power output at the flywheel.
