Aerodynamics of Narrow Vehicles is about the use of a small frontal area for Minimal Drag for Speed and Fuel Economy. The dream is of a fun commuter car which uses light weight and aerodynamics to full advantage without needing complicated power systems. Related interests include the aerodynamics of vehicles called manwide, half-width, narrow cars, motorcycle-car hybrids, all-weather motorcycles, velomobiles, hpv streamliners, etc. There is a lot of useful crossover information and knowledge for these vehicles since they all must deal with the problems of pushing through the air. So, power sources are not a consideration. It is hoped that juxtaposition of vehicles seldom put together will bring useful new ideas.
