Here's What Inspired The Threatening Front Splash Guards On The Awesome New Singer ACS

Quote:
“Essentially, when a car enters water at speed, the water gets pushed forwards and up and then tends to wash back over the front of the car and up over the windshield. The guards are designed to stop this by pushing the water back down and to the side of the car (where half-height doors help to prevent water entering the cabin).”
