In nature, the most aerodynamic shape is that of a drop of water, which has a coefficient of drag (Cd) of 0.05. Unfortunately, this is not a practical shape for a vehicle. An object's Cd, or how much ...
SUVs are getting smoother, lower-drag shapes as EVs, hybrids, and emissions rules push efficiency. From underbody panels to sloped rooflines, aerodynamics is now a design requirement, and the “boxy” ...
AAs surprising as it may seem, this is a typical road load power required relationship to vehicle speed. As rolling resistance and aerodynamic loading increase, so does the amount of power required to ...
