The case for streamlined cars isn't new - for decades, mankind has searched for higher top speeds, especially in racing. And because aerodynamics is by far the most dominant force to overcome at high ...

One area that can significantly enhance EV performance is aerodynamic optimization. Electric vehicles (EVs) are more popular than ever before, thanks to an increase in the variety of models available ...

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 ...

BYD's YangWang is building the most aerodynamic car in the world, the U6. The current record is held by the Mercedes EQS premium sedan. The model is the project of YangWang, a newly established ...

Future Ford pickups could get an aerodynamic powered tonneau cover that could deploy when needed, but then tuck away for a ...

From smoke trails and wind tunnels to CFD and AI, why car aerodynamics evolved into a digital-first engineering discipline. Early automotive aerodynamics relied on wind tunnels and visual tools like ...

It’s a long way from pedal bikes to Formula 1. But that’s precisely the quantum leap that AI-based startup Neural Concept and its co-founder and CEO, Pierre Baqué, made in just six years. In 2018, 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 ...
