The .18R SS engine is @1.5 hp and the evos G3.0 is @2.2 hp

since the G3.0 is @2.2 hp and the .18R SS engine is @1.5 hp, why do they advertise thet both engines reach the maximum speed of 81 kmh?

The only thing i can think of is gearing. The hp doen't get you 50 mph (81)kmh, the gearing does. The hp just gets you there quicker. They both may get you to 50 mph, but the evo+ with the 2.2 hp will do it faster
