Maybe there's more detail to come...
The Euro-spec CLA 180 was rated at Cd 0.22. BMW has something to match that. It's great to see the numbers coming down. Lucid Air is talking Cd 0.21.
They're getting closer to the 1996 EV1, which didn't have a cooling system, so in that context, they've already beaten it.
