1 KW = 1.3410 HP or
1 HP = 0.7457 KW
so 372kw are 498.9 hp
close -
1 HP = 760 W
372 W x 1000 = 372000 w
372000 / 760 = 489.474 HP
Nope. Your close....he's right on the money.
Power (kW) = Power (HP) x 0.7457
Power (HP) = Power (kW) x 1.341

Very few of life's problems can not be solved with the reasonable application of more horsepower!

I think this car would sell like crazy in US!!!
It would compete with M5. Plus the quality!!
I lived in Europe for most of my life and I got to tell u Ford is considered one of the the "best" makes out there. They don't seem to break as much too!

Ford should bring that compete with the new GTO. It decimates it in the looks department, and probably could out perform it... stupid ford.
