MINI still use HP, so the equivalent PS figures would be rounded-off to 177 (177.43) and 195 (194.67) respectively.

Although the accuracy of the stated figures is often disputed as several Rolling Road tests of standard Cooper S have produced considerably higher results.

MCS = 128 kW = 174.03 PS = 171.65 HP
JCW = 141 kW = 191.71 PS = 189.08 HP

Convert Power

But surely if the Cooper S is 175PS it would say that on the website/in the brochures etc?

Why do MINI list it as 175 HP?

There are small differences between the US and UK models, if you read the press releases for the JCW kit on Motoringfile.com you'll see the US model is quoted as being 3bhp down on the UK car before and after the kit.
