Some Observations on Shape Factors Influencing Aerodynamic Lift on Passenger Cars

The car aerodynamicist developing passenger cars is primarily interested in reducing aerodynamic drag. Considerably less attention is paid to the lift characteristics except in the case of high-performance cars. Lift, however, can have an effect on both performance and stability, even at moderate sp...
