Photoshop me the most aerodynamic Yaris!
Lowered, kammback'd, boattailed, moon disc'd, rear wheel skirts, anything... I would LOVE to see how far a Yaris can go and still look "good". I am sure a Yaris could hit at least 60mpg with some good aero mods... maybe more |

I could do 70mpg if I was allowed to go 30-35mph without stopping. No mods needed :)

I think the best thing you could do.... for the HB at least is to give it a tail so to speak... like a cone shaped tail... the HB has sooo much drag at highway speeds.

^The HB has a lot of drag? Where have you gotten this information? Could I see the article because I'm very interested.

the sedan has much better drag characteristics. Also... if you hook up a scanguage to the HB you'll notice that anything above 50mph and your mpg's drops like a rock.... yes there is also the factor of friction with higher rpm's...however, friction isn't the only force causing mpg's to decrease so quickly at highway speeds. |

Alright, as the OP, i guess I have to go first
This is my take on probably the most aero you could make a yaris... while still making it look good. I dont know about the kammback design though, I bet someone could make it look even "cooler" -looking and extend it a bit more... |

Someone post a pic of the sedan, that is about as clean aerodynamically as most cars, including modified 3-doors. If this thing has a C/D of .29, I am very happy, and not in the least surprised.

Well both the sedan and hatchback have the exact same .cd of .29 soooo
They are both as slippery i suppose... |

Now, THAT is interesting, somehow seems wrong to me. Now it gets into having a wind tunnel to see where the different airflows go. Where did your C/D information come from, out of curiosity?

basslover911 that was good. Do you have that black stripe on your car? I might try to do that on mine.
