Chevy Bolt's aero is a 'disaster,'

From autoblog:

Design team leader Stuart Norris called it a "disaster for aero." They made it "big and spacious," getting a Cd of 0.32. The standard tricks of aluminum, a spoiler, underbody panels and an active grille are meant "to compensate" for it.

They killed the aero to get interior utility. On a platform who's selling point is efficiency. I'm not a fan.
