Take a look inside the wind tunnel, where GM engineers are measuring the aerodynamics of the Chevrolet Volt. Watch as Nina Tortosa explains the importance of aerodynamics and how it impacts the vehicle.

  • fuk Aerodynamics, just put bigger engine

  • @Corvobell You obviously haven't seen many European cars. BMW 320d EfficientDynamics has Cd of 0.26. Volt has 0.281.

    BMW also has combined consumption of 4l of diesel / 100km in comparison to Volt, when running on ICE, which is 7l of gasoline / 100km.

  • @leaualorin

    you should take off caps lock. the car isn't that bad on aerodynamics

  • @leaualorin thumbs up well deserved sir :)

  • @TranCendenZ That seat what? 2 people? less? a minurature backpack? haha, keep dreaming.

  • @TogetherinParis Considering they build the Chevrolet Corvette, opels, ect. They know more about Aerodynamics more than you do. I bet you think a tonka truck has good aerodynamics. Whatd you do? read a book about and say ive got it? These engineers studied for years to get to where they are now, and they would more than likely scoff at your comment kinda like im doing now.

  • @Gcalvano514 I second you! haha. 99 percent of them are retarded rants with people who literally know nothing. I mean like blank brain cant even take anything into consideration.

  • Chevrolet wouldn't understand aerodynamics if it got slapped in the face with the engineering textbook. All these open wheel wells slow the car down, limiting top speed and acceleration. The car needs a boat tail and an aerodynamic bottom. If this car and all cars and trucks in America were really weight minimized and aerodynamic, the USA could be exporting oil.

  • top gear's car was much better, by smashing the air to bits

  • @DroidNoid So can you provide your source about how long the battery will last? I'm curious to know how you've come to that conclusion.
