I see that they taped the seams on the vehicle during testing, yet removed the roof and had wipers on the car during some of the road tests.

I'd really like to see the airflow around those front wheels. The inner fender lips don't seem to have very much of a smooth curve to them ( such as the Gen 1 Insight did.)

So what is the Cd ?
