How this is worked out

Torque in newton metres is power in kW × 9,550 ÷ engine speed in RPM. The 9,550 constant comes from 60,000 ÷ 2π.

Worked example

  • 110 kW
  • 4,000 RPM

110 × 9,550 ÷ 4,000

262.6 Nm

Assumptions and limits

  • Gives torque at the exact power and engine speed entered. Peak torque usually occurs lower down the rev range, so this is not the quoted peak torque figure.
  • Power must be in kilowatts. To use a bhp figure, convert it first.
