We live in a world where street cars have aerodynamic features inspired by race cars. How cool is that?
Khodrocar - One of the most exciting developments in modern performance cars is the increased use of clever, race inspired aerodynamics. While it used to be that most street car spoilers were for decoration only, we now get cars that generate real downforce in innovative ways. Here are some of the coolest examples.

Aston Martin Valkyrie Underbody Channels


Instead of creating downforce from the top of the Valkyrie's body, Aston martin decided to do it from the underside. The whole underbody is basically hollow, occupied by carved channels for air can pass through and suck the car to the ground.

Dodge Viper ACR Extreme Aero Package


The big wing, huge front splitter, and dive planes on the Dodge Viper ACR are probably the most in-your-face aerodynamic features on this list, but they're also some of the most effective. With the optional Extreme Aero Package, the ACR generates legitimate race car levels of downforce. So much downforce, that it can reduce your MPG even when you're towing it. Seriously.

Koeningsegg One:1 Top-Mount Wing


The Koenigsegg One:1 resembles something out of a science fiction fantasy more than a tiny Swedish automaker. Its wing is top-mounted and active, which is said to reduce turbulence in front of the wing. Just watch this video of Christian Von Koenigsegg explaining how it works.

McLaren P1 Manual DRS


Modern F1 cars use a Drag Reduction System (DRS, for short) to, as the name suggest, reduce drag, laying the spoilers down into a more aerodynamically efficient position. Some road cars have systems that do it automatically–like the Ferrari 488–but the McLaren P1 has a big button on the steering wheel so the driver can do it manually.

Pagani Huayra BC


This is perhaps an oversimplification, but there are two approaches to aerodynamics used in modern street cars. There's hidden, active aerodynamics (Ferrari 488) and brutal, old-school passive aero (Dodge Viper ACR). Interestingly, the Pagani Huayra BC uses both, with a huge rear wing and dive planes, but active flaps on the front and rear of the car.
