These early aerodynamic designs will be presented in a class of “Streamliners” at the Concours d’Elegance, representing ...

Automakers and car designers had been toying with aerodynamics long before the 1970s rolled around. Notable exploits from the earlier days include the slippery teardrop-shaped Tatra and the ...

For most automakers, the 1980s represented a clean break from the chunky, rectangular styling cues that had dominated during the energy crisis of the previous decade as designers began to let ...

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 ...

Nikesh Kooverjee has been contributing to the automotive sphere for 11 years. His previous roles include Digital Editor at CAR South Africa and associate editor at CarBuzz. He has always had a strong ...

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 ...

Once your car’s rolled off of whatever assembly line its final screw was tightened down on, its aerodynamics get about as much attention as the little light bulb in the corner of your trunk.

A tip of the hat to the editor over at Dailysportscar this morning for reminding me of one of the cooler bits of industrial repurposing in the automotive world. It’s a Victorian railway tunnel in ...

Let's get one thing out of the way: we're not talking about a bullet fired into your car having something in common with one fired into water. Rather, we're talking about the shape of the bullet, and ...

For a better understanding of aerodynamic testing, we asked an expert to provide us with some basic, but valuable information on the subject. The author is directly involved in using his knowledge of ...

For the gearhead, aerodynamics means confidence. Well-designed aero elements help performance cars stay stuck to the tarmac at high speeds, allowing the driver to sling and yank the car in and out of ...
