A car's drag coefficient affects how much power it's exerting and how fast it's going. But the actual science behind it is a ...

Drag reduction system - explained
How does the drag reduction system work in Formula One? What is the purpose of the DRS? In this video I explain how the DRS ...
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 ...
The Tesla Semi is certainly futuristic. However, this is not simply because it's a Tesla and it's supposed to be unique. Instead, it's designed to be as aerodynamic as possible, which is no easy feat ...
Whether gasoline, diesel, or electric, automakers work hard to wring every last drop of mileage out of their vehicles. Much of this effort goes towards optimising aerodynamics. The reduction of drag ...
Lucid has released the results of aerodynamic testing for their upcoming Air electric sedan with an impressive .21 Cd, which they claim makes the Lucid Air the world’s most aero-efficient luxury car.
It’s long been accepted that the smoother the surface, the lower the aerodynamic drag. That turns out not always to be the case. Aerodynamic drag is a major “barrier” in high-speed airplanes, ...
A few weeks ago, we took a look at the most aerodynamically efficient vehicles ever made. At the time, the lowest-drag production car for sale in the US was the Porsche Taycan, which cuts through the ...
To understand how aero works, look to the skies. The same principles that keep aircraft aloft are used to stick cars to the ground. The curved profile of an airplane's wing deflects airflow, forcing ...
