The aerodynamics
The Phaeton has a low drag coefficient of 0.32 cw — a level which was achieved by applying various
measures:
● The underbody has an extremely smooth design,
● The windscreen wipers are embedded,
● The body gap dimensions are very low,
● The front has an arrow-shaped design and
● The body is lowered at higher speeds.
Small features such as the retractable headlight cleaning nozzles, the antenna-free body and the smooth
body transitions are also responsible for this low drag coefficient.
