Active Aerodynamics
Active aerodynamics refers to the sophisticated mechanisms and systems incorporated into, vehicles, particularly high-performance cars, to dynamically adjust and optimise their aerodynamic properties.
These adaptations typically involve altering the shape and orientation of components such as spoilers, wings, air ducts and flaps in real-time. By doing so vehicle stability is enhanced, drag is reduced and downforce can be increased as needed during different driving conditions.
Such intricate adjustments help maximise a vehicle’s speed, cornering ability and overall performance whilst maintaining control and efficiency.
Active aerodynamics in its true sense would be a rear wing on a vehicle that can provide three versions of interruption of the air flow over the vehicle. For instance, movement from a Drag Reduction System (DRS) to an increased downforce position to a full airbrake.
Whether it means altering the shape and orientation of components such as spoilers or wings, or the addition of air ducts and flaps we work with customers to provide what is needed for their low- to mid-volumes.
