In the world of electric propulsion, motor power is expressed in kilowatts (kW), while in the combustion world the most common value is horsepower (HP). This difference in units can lead to confusion when comparing electric and combustion engines. To facilitate this transition, Miglia developed this kW to HP converter, allowing for quick visualization of power equivalents and supporting technical analyses, system sizing, and decision-making in drone, light aircraft, and industrial applications.

Reference: 1 kW = 1.341 HP

kW to HP converter

Convert kilowatts (kW) to horsepower (hp) and vice versa. 1 kW = 1.341 hp

Automatic conversion: enter a value in kW or Hp and the other will be calculated automatically.
