LEAF underfloor

The Leaf has far better undercar aero than the Prius - something that perhaps might explain its lower lift? You seem to be forgetting half of the body shape!

As for the Taycan having upper body separation - you are joking, aren't you? Where's your evidence for that - comparison with your make-believe ultimate template? If so many people hadn't been sucked into believing such rubbish, it would be just laughable.

It's really obvious that no matter what anyone shows through testing, or whatever anyone shows through technical references, or what anyone says in citing current car aerodynamicists, you will not change your views. To be honest, that is just gobsmackingly arrogant.
* It 'might? 'perhaps'?
* Is the LEAF underside also superior to the Tesla Model S?

* As to the Taycan, there's a probability that it experiences the same phenomena as the 2010 Audi A7. And for exactly the same reason.

* As to the make-believe, ultimate template. It's simply a tool for non-millionaires, used to create cars like the Insight and Prius, both lineal descendants of the FKFS 'templates', which themselves were lineal descendants of Walter E. Lay's 'templates' of 1933, which took their inspiration from Jaray and Klemperer's research ' templates' of 1922.............. Otto Lilianthal's , 1899, Alexandre Gustav Eiffel's, 1898, .............................
* It's very curious that one lauds the progeny of the FKFS, while simultaneously attacking the methods employed giving birth.
