UNDER COVER AERODYNAMIC PERFORMANCE

Purpose

• Under covers and deflectors have been adopted to straighten the wind flow along the underside of the vehicle.

Function, Construction

• A deflector is equipped in front of each tire to straighten the wind flow passing around the tire and alongside the vehicle.

• By equipping the under covers to the uneven areas on the underside of the vehicle, the underside of the vehicle becomes flat and the wind flow is straightened.

Front under cover/front crossmember under cover

• Prevents wind flow into the engine compartment, allowing it to flow straight back to the rear of the vehicle.

Front deflector/rear deflector

• Prevents wind flow into the tire housings and straightens wind flow away from the body side, allowing it to flow to the rear of the vehicle.

• Front and rear tire deflectors prevent the wind flow from hitting the rotating tires to reduce aerodynamic drag.

Center under cover

• Straightens wind flow under the floor.

Floor under cover

• Prevents wind flow from swirling between the floor and the fuel tank, allowing it to flow to the rear of the vehicle.

Fail-safe

• Not applicable
