Interesting, i feel like the first time i picked up a car mag and had no clue what any of the specs meant
I'd really like to see the back of that car in a wind tunnel, on the one hand it's clearly streamlined, but on the other hand i would expect that gap to cause major flow separation. Then again it's got those almost boat like protrusions that seem to have a very specific aero purpose

It pretty much means that this is an experimental electric car with a really streamlined body, a fast charging system, and a coating that will absorb solar energy.

Well yeah but cmon, that's what it does, which is different from understanding the specs
