The only thing I've seen was in a circa 1999 Mechanical Engineering magazine,from an engineering student at the University of New Mexico,Las Cruces' campus,Central Plant.
It covered the development of the General Motors 'Precept' PNGV concept.
This car was bench-marked against an EV 1 test mule(Cd 0.197 according to GM),and at full-scale,in the Warren,Michigan,full-scale wind tunnel,recorded Cd 0.168,or 0.163,I'll have to check.
