Why wouldn’t ICE cars be equally affected by car drag coefficients?
- londons_explore 8y agoFuel is cheap. Nobody cares about that extra 0.2 mpg. For electric it's an amplified effect, because a slightly lower drag coefficient means less energy use per mile, which means you can have a smaller battery, which in turn means lighter, which is again less energy per mile.
- audunw 8y agoThey are, but range is not as big of an issue with ICE, so less pressure to optimize drag coefficient
