Technical Drag Factors

[mckcrich]

Does anyone know the "frontal area" for a cinquecento also the drag
co-efficient which i've seed quoted as .33 or .32,

I want to do some drag calculations and could use estimates but 8if
anyone know where to find this data it would be very helpful,

TIA.

Why not use that to find the Area? Or failing that...measure the frontal area as a series of blocks and add the areas up..

Thanks for your reply, I need to have the frontal area, speed and the Drag coefficient to calculate the Drag force. I can calculate the area from diagrams, but if someone already has the value or knows where I could find it it would save time and probably be more accurate.

many thanks
