KR81 4th Gear October 30, 2014 Share October 30, 2014 No physical windscreen but a 'virtual' one. Will the air flow completely prevent flies and any other bugs flying into your face? Hmmmmmm...... "The aerodynamics have allowed us to achieve more interesting results, starting with the creation of a virtual windshield. The elimination of the windshield would, in fact, the arrival of a stream of air pressure increasing with the speed on the head of the driver and the passenger. The engineers and designers at Pininfarina have designed, built and tested an airfoil placed in a shape of the bonnet, which produces a double deflection of the flow of air entering the passenger compartment. The first deviation is made from the wing itself, the second from the air that accelerates the channel created between the airfoil and the corresponding shape of the molding in the trunk. The result is that, thanks to the virtual windshield, the air passes above the heads of the driver and the passenger, greatly increasing the comfort. This effect also contributes to increase the aerodynamic downforce on the front axle of the car. The virtual windscreen is already effective from 50 km/h." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pininfarina_Sergio ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
