That's a shame, this is what they were doing back in 2010 - no progress on the underbelly since then?

Looks like some attention to detail there.

Impeccably tidy underbody. 205mm of ground clearance is more than you'll ever need:


They did better at the front part - like I expected - a partial.

EDIT:

Perhaps this image below shows the respect I give the Duster, as compared to others, not compared to a concept or ideal execution.

Even though it might still be somehow underestimated by some, the Duster is quite decent

Page 2260? I'm not keeping up. But it's off to the VW thread.

In an attempt to get the Advanced Design series more up-to-date instead of making the Task Force in Brazil, GM might've harmed its aerodynamics somehow.

The one with a one-piece windshield and windsplits on the hood has been channeled about 4 inches. That is less frontal area.

Maybe cleaner than some designs that look aerodynamic but actually are not.

Then again, maybe the Cd of this is just more predictable.
