Can a drag coefficient be negative?
Drag coefficient cannot be negative in steady flow and a negative value of drag coefficient in steady flow indicates a computational error. It can however be zero in unsteady flow instantaneously.
What’s the drag coefficient on a Mazda 6?
This is also the slipperiest Mazda ever with a drag coefficient of .27 down from .30 on the previous model in the sedan and .28 for the wagon, a reduction of .04 from the outgoing version.
What is the formula for the coefficient of drag?
Frontal Area formula = Height * Width * .84 (Height and Width in feet) Frontal Area formula = (Height/12) * (Width/12) * .84 (Height and Width in inches) CdA formula = Cd * Frontal Area
How big is the Mazda 6 in inches?
This is despite the fact that the new Mazda6 has grown in specification and, more importantly, in dimensions with the sedan and hatch up 65mm to 4735mm in length, a 15mm lift in width to 1795mm, 5mm rise in height to 1440mm and a significant 50mm more in wheelbase which extends to 2725mm.
What kind of power does a Mazda 6 have?
The new 2.5-litre MZR four cylinder features a new block over the previous 2.3-litre unit and rises by 3Kw in power to 125Kw; while crucially torque goes north to the tune of 19Nm to 226Nm.

What kind of body styles does Mazda 6 have?
As before, the 6 comes in three body styles (sedan, hatch and wagon) with the same four trim levels.
