The Formula 1 racing cars are very high power engines. During the initial stages of F1 (during the late 1940s to early 1950s) the engines had a power ranging between 300 to over 500 Hp. The engines were reduced in capacity several times by the mid 60s.
Starting with 1966 power slowly started going up again, and during the 1980's some cars even had more than a 1000 Hp in qualifying trim. This was the time when turbo chargers were allowed. After 1988 the turbo chargers were banned and eventually the engine hp started coming down to around 600 Hp. After the year 2000 strong F1 race winning cars have produced over 900 Hp at the peak of the V10 era. As V10s were banned power output dropped as is now between 750-850 hp.
The Mercedes Benz engine in the McLaren F1 puts down about 700 to 780BHP.
it has 680 hp
Most f1 cars have about 8-9 hundred horsepower but horsepower is limited andall the cars in one race have the same horsepower so one car doesn't go faster than another and it is a fair race.
Not necessarily, it just burns more gas. - F1 engines in the 80's were getting over 1,000 horsepower from 3 litres.
Unregulated. BMW. 1500 on Methanol.
Ferrari F1 engines generate around a 1000 bhp (Brake Horse Power)
V6 engine - 210 horsepower , V8 engine - 315 horsepower

The horsepower on the 1988 Mustang was # 90 horsepower 2.3 liter engine # 225 horsepower 5.0 liter engine
225 horsepower - UA engine code or 250 horsepower - UD engine code
A general rule is the bigger the engine, the more horsepower.
A Mazda B2200 engine with carburetor has 85 horsepower, and with fuel-injection has 105 horsepower.
the horsepower of a car depends on the number of cylinders it has. The engine displacement does not affect the horsepower of a car by much.
The standard horsepower of the Chevrolet 6.0 liter engine that comes in the Silverado is 360 horsepower. This is a V-8 engine.
