Not a perfect measure, but a good indication of cleanness through the air of the base models can be derived from the coefficient of drag and frontal area figures:
Model | Cd | Area m^2 | CdA |
G20 3-Series | 0.23 | 2.22 | 0.51 |
Q50 | 0.26 | N/K | N/K |
Civic FK8 | 0.26 | N/K | N/K |
Civic FK2 | 0.27 | N/K | N/K |
A-Class | 0.28 | 2.2 | 0.62 |
Avensis | 0.28 | N/K | N/K |
VW CC | 0.3 | N/K | N/K |
A4 | 0.31 | 2.2 | 0.68 |
Giulietta | 0.31 | N/K | N/K |
F20 1-Series | 0.32 | 2.14 | 0.68 |
Giulia | 0.32 | N/K | N/K |
Corolla | 0.32 | N/K | N/K |
S3 | 0.34 | 2.13 | 0.72 |
Focus RS | 0.36 | N/K | N/K |
