It would be interesting to find out if the in profile template conforming but somewhat boxy Chevy Express outperforms the Fuldamobil Cd wise.

I'm sure that the curves and tangent angles of the Fuldamobil are too aggressive, but we have seen cars like the GM Impact (EV1) and aircraft canopies result in some impressively low Cd's.

Late in 1996 General Motors, the biggest of America’s Big Three car makers, put the EV1, its first electric vehicle, into production. This iniative sprang from GM’s Impact concept car that was unveiled in 1990.
NOTE: I plan to insert a 3D 3/4 rear view of the AeroTemplate as soon as I can find it.
