A leading global automaker has taken a significant step to boost range of EVs. Stellantis unveiled its Moving Ground Plane (MGP) technology in the wind tunnel at the research and technical center in Auburn Hills, Mich.
The new technology, installed following a $29.5 million investment, will now be able to measure and reduce airflow resistance from wheels and tires, improving electric-vehicle range. It’s expected to account for up to 10% of total real-world aerodynamic drag.
