The current evidence shows that the cooling drag of a BEV is no where near zero (in contrast to what you have repeatedly stated).
That's a simple fact, based on the published evidence.
Anything else is just smoke and mirrors - in fact, typical Aerohead obfuscation as he scrabbles to hide his previously posted misinformation.

1) If you ever publish a single percentage for cooling drag, we'll immediately know that it's bogus. And if I have to explain it to you, we're all in deep..... and underserved, until we can figure out how to pump daylight to you.
2) And as you pursue another crucifixion, it would be fair to submit my exact wording used, which gave you this conclusion. I don't recall ever making such a blanket, all-encompassing comment like that. I just looked at 480-miles of Teslas in the last two days. Their obvious, 1963 Walter Korff race car minimum nose porosity makes me, if no one else, ponder their drag savings. You yourself mentioned that it is a simple matter of blocking this inlet to measure the cooling drag.
3) You have data for two vehicles? One Porsche and one Tesla? Radiators sized for 160-mph and 155-mph respectively. You are aware that there are two Taycans? And perhaps seven Model S ? And would you like to tell us all what their cooling drag would be if they were designed for 66-mph top speed? I've already given you some strong clues.
When you come up with data for the Mitsubishi i-MiEV get back to us. Chevy SPARK. SMART ED. FIAT 500e.
If you're going to play the prosecutor, at least learn the part!

When you finally know what you don't know about cooling systems, you'll be at a great starting place for taking on the topic.
The pedantry ain't cutting it.
