My electric vehicle, when set to imperial, will display charging speed in horsepower.

Apparently a wall outlet can provide 3.2 horsepower.

Checks out, that's 2,610 watts, or about a 20A circuit at 120V.

Giving me horsepower for the motor output instead of kilowatts kind of makes sense, but it changes everywhere.

The battery just displays as a percentage, otherwise it might tell me the energy remaining in horsepower hours.
