Register now: Sculpted by air? Balancing aerodynamics and aesthetics in car design

Join us for an exclusive livestream exploring the fascinating interplay of aerodynamics and aesthetics in automotive design.

Balancing aerodynamics with great looks is a big challenge in today’s car design, especially as EVs take over. This session looks at why so many EVs seem to look alike, how wind tunnels shape those designs, and what brands can do to boost performance while still standing out. We’ll dive into boxy shapes, sculpted airflow features, and how to make function and style work together.
