"What kind of car is this, and how can any car come here for testing now? ”

Ferrari Rory Byrne, who had just finished car testing, looked at the shape of a car transported in front of him, frowned and said with some displeasure.

As an F1 car designer and aerodynamicist, he was in charge of car design at Ferrari in the past, and Schumacher drove the car he designed to win five world championships.

Because of this, his status within Ferrari can be said to be quite high.

The LaFerrari, the successor to Enzo, was developed by him and Ferrari chief designer Flavio Manzoni as project leaders, and the results of the tests were clearly satisfactory to them.

It is Maranello in the Apennines, home to the headquarters of the famous supercar brand Ferrari and the R&D center of Azur Cars in Europe.

After the construction of the Blue car jointly funded by EMP and Ferrari, a total of two R&D centers have been set up, the performance R&D center in Huaxia is mainly developed for the chassis of this supercar and other performance-related components, and in Maranello, adjacent to Ferrari, is the exterior R&D center, where Ferrari's relevant technicians will carry out the design and related parts research and development work according to the performance data of the chassis.

In these two R&D centers, there are a large number of engineers in each other, absorbing and learning from each other's strengths.

It has been a year and a half since the official establishment of the blue car, in the process of this year and a half, the engineering personnel of both sides have completed the running-in work, the research and development work has become a rapid progress, the basic design of the appearance has been completed, and now it is in the continuous wind tunnel experiments, relying on the collected data, to continuously modify and improve the details, in order to achieve a minimum wind resistance, to achieve the maximum application of power.

At this time, Bai Ningyuan and Zhang Zilin were in the headquarters of this Azure Automobile.

Just when the country was in full swing because of the Lynx matter, Bai Ningyuan stepped out of the country with Zhang Zilin, first went to Kangaroo Country, took a set of underwater photos on the Great Barrier Reef, and then hurried to the flower capital Paris, where he took a set of romantic wedding photos, and finally completed all the shooting work.

Next, Zhang Zilin will fly directly to Africa to meet with the crew of "War Tiger 2", which has already started filming there, to shoot some scenes in Africa.

But since he came to Europe, he had to pay a visit to Mr. Armani, anyway, for the wedding of the two of them, he also took great pains, this favor must be remembered, anyway, Paris is not far from Milan, and the two of them flew to Milan.

After all, Armani is an internationally renowned design master, even if Zhang Zilin marries Bai Ningyuan, he will still be in the fashion circle in the future, so maintaining a good relationship with him will still be a great help to Zhang Zilin's career.

Milan is also quite close to Maranello, and since the establishment of Azure Automobile, Bai Ningyuan has never been here to inspect, thinking of this, after visiting Mr. Armani, Bai Ningyuan went to Maranello with Zhang Zilin.

Of course, after coming to Maranello, it is really impossible not to visit the Ferrari headquarters, and because of the current cooperative relationship between EMP and Ferrari, Bai Ningyuan was still warmly received here.

In fact, Bai Ningyuan's arrival this time can be said to be just right, because today, the first product of Azure Auto is being tested in Ferrari's wind tunnel laboratory after undergoing a relatively large change in exterior details.

One of the reasons why Scuderia Ferrari was able to dominate the race track was that they had a dominant position in the development of aerodynamic kits, and their own wind tunnel laboratory was arguably the most important factor in this factor.

That's why Rory Byrne was so upset when he saw the model of the Azure car coming here for testing, because he felt it was an insult to Ferrari.

Coupled with the arrival of Bai Ningyuan and Zhang Zilin, it made him angry to the extreme, what a professional place this is, even anyone can come in.

If it weren't for the fact that Domenikali, the Executive Premier, was also here, he would have opened his mouth to chase people away, but even so, the anger in the old man's eyes almost erupted.

When he heard that it was the wind tunnel experiment of the Azure car, his face was a little pale.

He had also heard of the project, which was a joint effort between Ferrari and other brands, and when it was first formed, Ferrari did not consider transferring his students to the project, but he turned it down.

In his cognition, Ferrari has only one Ferrari is enough, and such a cooperative brand, although it has Ferrari blood in it, is an out-and-out "mongrel".

In fact, although the design of traditional fuel vehicles also emphasizes the drag coefficient, most of them will not pursue the ultimate in this place, after all, the fuel consumption increases slightly, and will not affect the usual use, and for electric vehicles, because the endurance can be said to be the most test of its performance indicators, so aside from those cheating subsidies of shoddy products, electric vehicle manufacturers also attach great importance to the study of wind resistance coefficient, some data show that the wind resistance of electric vehicles is reduced by 10% , the car's cruising range can be increased by 5%.

But for a supercar like Ferrari that emphasizes performance, their research on aerodynamics has almost reached an extreme level.

Thinking that the LaFerrari is also a hybrid model, so he was about to leave, so he stopped his steps and wanted to see how many catties and taels there were in this so-called electric supercar, and what kind of products were taken out by some half-baked designer teams.

The design of the Teal car was both a challenge and an opportunity for Ferrari's designers to unleash their imagination, because there was no need to think about the "superfluous things" such as gearbox, exhaust pipe, engine and so on The effect on air resistance, so they could turn the entire body into a whole lifting body model to consider and design, and then use the large diffuser design that runs through the entire body to convert almost all the wind resistance into downforce.

This is almost unimaginable for a traditional fuel car, but in Teal Motors, everything has become a reality......
