2016 Camaro aerodynamic lift improvements

After 350 hours of wind tunnel testing – often 24 hours a day – the new Camaro will slip more easily through the wind, and drivers of the Camaro SS will experience an improvement in reduced aerodynamic lift. These changes illustrate the lengths the aerodynamics team went to for improved performance, stability, cooling and lower

Bosch new Generator

Generators with high-efficiency diodes and synchronous active rectification

Bosch generators with high-efficiency diodes (HEDs) and synchronous active rectification (SAR) have now been officially recognized by the EU as fuel economy innovations. These components make vehicles more efficient and more economical, so they are able to meet the European Commission’s strict CO2 targets. European regulations set an average emissions limit of 95 grams of CO2
