Sculpted by air: The aerodynamics at the centre of the design and development of the first Portuguese supercar
PORTO, Portugal, March 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- There's no other way to put it: function defined design. The first Portuguese supercar was born from a blank sheet of paper and the design process was led entirely by the head of aerodynamics. This is how important aerodynamics is to the performance of a supercar and Adamastor knows it well. Using Siemens NX CAD software, the design department developed the elaborate bodywork of the new Adamastor with total creative freedom, aiming for the best efficiency and superior performance in sports driving.
- The first Portuguese supercar was born from a blank sheet of paper and the design process was led entirely by the head of aerodynamics.
- This is how important aerodynamics is to the performance of a supercar and Adamastor knows it well.
- In a second stage, once the basic configuration had been designed, the team at Adamastor's engineering centre set about defining the spaces occupied by the main components.
- Targets were even set in terms of lap times in the simulator, records that were easily surpassed by the Adamastor supercar.
