Excerpt
Continuous reduction of driving resistance is a necessary contribution so that emissions can be reduced, range increased and vehicle performance enhanced. Active surface patterns in the vehicle skin influence the boundary layer and are thus able to reduce the aerodynamic driving resistance of a vehicle concept, as demonstrated by a race track-ready concept car from Bugatti Engineering. …
