Understanding Brake Horsepower Per Ton

The brake horsepower per ton ratio is a measure of vehicle performance that indicates how much power is available for each ton of vehicle weight. This ratio is particularly useful in evaluating the acceleration and overall performance of vehicles, especially in transportation and logistics applications.

Practical Applications

• Comparing the performance of different vehicles
• Evaluating vehicle efficiency in transportation applications
• Assessing the power-to-weight ratio for towing and hauling operations

Example Calculation

For example, if a vehicle has 200 brake horsepower and weighs 4 tons, the brake horsepower per ton would be calculated as follows:

Brake Horsepower Per Ton = 200 bhp / 4 tons = 50 bhp/ton
