Lightweight, highly rigid dry carbon parts
The main features of the exterior are the aerodynamic parts, such as the front bumper, front blister fender, and hood, which are made of CFRP specially developed for automotive applications.
These CFRP body parts further reduce the weight of the vehicle front. The front bumper effectively guides air to the engine and brakes, and the front blister fenders were widened by 15 mm on one side to accommodate the wider tread and were also given the function of exhausting the air from the engine room from inside the fenders.
The hood has air ducts for obtaining sufficient intake air volume utilizing the ram pressure effect during high-speed driving, and it also features a front under-spoiler to create a lowering force on the front of the vehicle. In this way, all of the aerodynamic parts used on the vehicle were designed with the airflow in mind.
