Agreed.

I skimmed the article too quickly and missed this; " to wing a P19 Shorty behind a Hyundai Ioniq 5 results in 15-percent air drag increase.". That's something.

I'm coming down with something so my attention is even worse than normal.

Would still love to see what an unladen Ioniq 5 normally gets at 55 so we have the full comparison, though the 15% improvement claim is something despite the lack of details to give more confidence.
