Funny how the new Prius doesn’t even use air curtains on the front. Wonder why? Toyota seems to still be against heavy coverage hubcap/wheel cap covers while Hyundai has embraced it.

Did my gold panning trip that in the summer usually gets me 68-72mpg average with no mirrors and wheel covers. 41 degrees today, still had wheel skirts on, but I only averaged 57 mpg. Huge hit just from temp drop. Maybe it would’ve seen 59mpg with no mirrors. Still… temps make a big diff I guess in a hybrid

Taking my wheel skirts off this weekend and getting my snow tires put on, so there goes another aero hit. I’ll be completely back to stock body. For aero mods in snow I’ll have to focus on the under body, and something at the rear that won’t be affected by heavy snow driving

Aero, what’s your opinion on the box cavity thing at the rear of the KIA EV6 suv?
