Coefficient of Drag for Selected Vehicles
 
I recently located this site again after misplacing the link...

I figured it might help some Ecomodders out.

The Gent that runs it is a Bonneville Speed Racing type..
Enjoy.

If they are 100% right, they'll help a bunch.

OMG the Chevrolet Lumina's drag is .300...impressive.

Yes, I have a '91 Nissan 240SX Fastback in the garage as my "toy" car... I should be using that as a Ecomodder, but it is not stock... ;)

That has a factory 0.300 as well...

I was thinking about getting a 240SX for my next car. I bet I could bring it down to .28. :)

It says a 92 Tempo GLS has a Cd of .36.. Ouch. That's a generation up from mine, though. The front and rear ends were redesigned, and that was about it aerodynamically.

Hey, no Peugeots!!
Good find, Bow:)

Would we need Mayfield's permission to incorporate their list into EcoModder's Drag List?
And here's is the relevant thread:
CdA list

both lists are missing drag coeffcients for KIAs newer than 2005 (1994 actually) but drag coeffcients for newer/recent kia models would be appreciated

Much of the data is estimated, we've talked about this before, it's older than the hills, take it with a grain of salt.

If you find them for your vehicles (in press releases, Kia Motors Deutschland ? The Power to Surprise? spec sheets, or whereever, please add them to the Wiki.

i did find the drag coefficient for my spectra5 on my clubs website, from the factory it looks like the drag coefficient is .33
