1967 Panhard CD Peugeot 66c. What a badass. Entered in the 1967 Le Mans race. This car had a drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.13 (!!)

Here’s a bit more of the story .

Very cool little car .

Notice they did not finish , though no reason is given .

But want to have a good laugh ? Toyota , as well as Prius owners thinks their Prius’s Cd is such a big deal when the French had this going on … what ……some 45 years ago !

Nothing new under the sun my friends . Nothing much at all

@ Rob – Aerodynamic Drag does not always equate to lift/downforce
