What’s the mpg impact on closing the gap? It must be measurable if Hyundai keep bragging about their “ partial wheel arch gap filler” on their Ioniq 6 car as an aero achievement lol
I have only one research finding on this topic, from an online source, and it's at home.
I'm carrying a thousand pages of resource material with me to the library, and it never seems to be enough for all the 'topics' which can come up on any given day.
It'll be next Monday before I get back.
