speaking of kei
I just put the 2006 Mitsubishi i,kei car(Japanese market only) under the 'Template'.It's Cd 0.35 with only 15.5% of roof length.21.9% of total aft-body,and a Length/Height ratio of only 2.086.
With some of Hucho's "elongation" this puppy might really sing.
Mitsubishi has had gasoline direct injection for 20-years or so now (laboratory anyway).Toyota is looking at 43.7% thermal efficiencies with their concept-2 engines.Short of the Diesel,this powerplant,an 8-speed trans,the light weight,low frontal area,and improved Cd could make a really fine crisis-fighter.
