Most people are not familiar with the Fiat Turbina it is one of those rare gems. Here are some drawings of it so that you can see its aerodynamic profile. At first glance it is not what you might expect from a car that is world famous for its cd of 0.14 during its time. I have made modifications to these drawings as you will see a little resemblance to the Tigon sketch I initially provided.
The aerodynamics and weight are the two areas I am focusing much of my attention on as I see these areas as critical to the overall success of the vehicle.You can put whatever engine and electric motor in it you want and as many batteries as it can hold but its all for nothing unless you get the aerodynamics correct and are able to keep the weight low.
