Forget horsepower, it's all about aerodynamics

Aerodynamics: Is it more important than horsepower? As aerodynamic as it's going to get

It's aerodynamics, stupid.

Insideline reported yesterday that GM's lead Chevy Volt designer, Bob Boniface, has become a little offensive about the Volt's aerodynamics. While GM isn't releasing official aero figures, Boniface claims that many competitors, such as Tesla, are releasing phony numbers. Ultimately, Boniface claims the Volt will offer a coefficient drag similar to either the Roadster or the new Toyota Prius.

Finish: Forget horsepower, it's all about aerodynamics
