Currently, the four cars with the lowest drag coefficient in the world are the Zhiji L7, Mercedes-Benz EQS, Model S Plaid, and Lucid Air, with drag coefficients ranging from 0.20 to 0.21Cd. Introduction to Automotive Drag: Automotive air resistance refers to the component of the force exerted by air on a car moving in a straight line, in the direction of travel. Air resistance is proportional to the square of the speed, meaning that if the speed doubles, the resistance increases by three times. Therefore, high-speed driving has a significant impact on air resistance. At higher speeds, the engine must allocate a considerable portion of its power, or fuel energy, to overcome air resistance. Drag Coefficient Analysis: The drag coefficient (Cw) is a dimensionless value that describes the shape of the vehicle body. Depending on the vehicle's shape, the Cw value typically ranges between 0.3 (good) and 0.6 (poor).
