Aerodynamics is a necessary but time-consuming part of car design. For General Motors and Jaguar Land Rover, AI is stepping ...

Everyone eagerly awaits Tesla to reveal Cybertruck's specifications, the most important being its range and efficiency. Until then, a simulation based on a publicly available 3D model shows that the ...

The auto industry is making a major move to smaller gas engines and electric vehicles, but changes in how cars are powered alone won't be enough. Our vehicles will need to become more efficient in ...

Engineers have produced a video simulation to illustrate the complex aerodynamics around a moving car and its tires. The complex aerodynamics around a moving car and its tires are hard to see, but not ...

Pickup trucks are some of the least aerodynamically efficient vehicles on the road, partly due to their large frontal area, upright design that fights the wind as you drive along but also the open bed ...

In the early 1900s, cars were not designed with particular aesthetics in mind. They were primarily built to be practical and utilitarian. The introduction of the Ford Model T in 1908, the first ...

The 1980s marked a transformative period in automotive design, driven largely by advancements in aerodynamics. The decade saw car manufacturers shift from boxy, angular shapes to sleeker, more ...

While studying traditional news journalism in college, Jake realized he was smitten by all things automotive and wound up with an internship at Car and Driver. That led to a career writing news, ...

Among the sciences and practices involved in building an automobile, aerodynamics is one of the most important. Creating a car that can efficiently cut through or manipulate the air around it is a ...

One of the major changes computers have injected into the Indianapolis 500 over the past two decades is the widespread use of simulation. No longer do designers or race teams have to schedule ...

If you’re a frequent reader of automotive reviews and news, you may have, at some point in your life, read someone accuse a car being more aerodynamic going backwards than forwards. This is often used ...
