Rn
For typical passenger cars, subsonic critical Reynolds number would be achieved by 20-mph, the coefficient of drag would become fixed, and remain so until compressibility effects would arise in transonic flow, at around 250-mph, in standard air.
There are online sources for the Rn calculation, based upon structure length and velocity, at standard air.
