In order to achieve the impressively low drag coefficient of just 0.29 Cd, the BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo comes equipped with front
apron air curtains and new air breathers situated behind the front wheels which are designed to reduce air turbulence, and therefore drag.

The front
apron of the CLS 53 4MATIC + features additional side
air curtains: the
air flows over them in a targeted manner, thereby improving the aerodynamics at the front and reducing the Cd figure.

Meanwhile, «
air curtains» at the front
apron reduce turbulence and therefore drag around the front wheels.
Contributing to a drag coefficient of 0.26 are
Air Curtains in the front
apron, active flaps in the grille and lower intake, plus a rear wiper concealed under the roof spoiler — neat touch!

apron past the wheel arch where it goes through the
Air Breather behind the front wheel arch.
The resized vertical ventilation slits in the front
apron channel
air into the wheel arches to create a kind of «
air curtain» or aerodynamic screening effect across the face of the front wheels, which significantly reduces drag in this area.
