The two quantities are measured or derived separately and then combined to give the statistic. It's the weight of the vehicle divided by the maximum horsepower of the engine.

Horsepower-to-weight ratio is calculated by dividing the power output of an engine (measured in horsepower) by the weight of the vehicle. It is a simple mathematical equation that gives an indication of a vehicle's performance capabilities based on its power-to-weight ratio. The higher the ratio, the better the acceleration and overall performance of the vehicle.
