Sentences with phrase «thereby reducing drag»

The two compact multi-disc clutches of the new seven - speed S tronic are arranged axially behind each other instead of — as with the predecessor — radially above each other, thereby reducing drag torque.

There is a huge carbon fiber rear diffuser allowing air to escape freely from underneath the vehicle thereby reducing drag.

They also protect the diffuser's internal channels from the turbulence generated by the rear wheels, thereby reducing drag.

So at higher speeds, when the car is headed in a straight line, an electronically controlled motor lowers another set of flaps to stall the diffuser, in F1 parlance, thereby reducing drag as well as downforce.

Already proven on the 918 Spyder, the flaps close automatically while the car is in motion and thereby reduce drag.

Not exact matches

But the Multi70's X-factor is its ability to «fly,» thanks to a foil that lifts the hull several feet out of the water, thereby dramatically reducing drag and enabling speeds of up to 44 knots — just about 50 mph.

Below 106 mph, the spoiler stays in its retracted position with an angle of minus seven degrees to reduces drag, while above that speed the roof spoiler automatically moves to the performance position with an angle of plus one degree, thereby increasing driving stability and lateral dynamics.

The main benefit however to lack of wind drag is better fuel economy, and thereby reduced emissions.

Depending on the speed and the mode specified by Audi drive select, it lowers the body by up to 25 mm, to increase stability and reduce drag and thereby improve fuel consumption.

At High Speeds, The Suspension Level is Automatically Lowered By Upto 15 mm, Thereby Helping to Reduce Aerodynamic Drag and Improve Handling Stability) \ n Panoramic Sliding Sunroof

It opens up a slot on the rear wing which reduces drag thereby making you go quicker.

A combination of these with other technologies, including materials substitution, reduced aerodynamic drag, reduced rolling resistance, reduced engine friction and pumping losses, has the potential to approximately double the fuel economy of «new» light - duty vehicles by 2030, thereby roughly halving carbon emissions per vehicle mile travelled (note that this is only for a new car and not the fleet average)(medium agreement, medium evidence)[5.3.1].
