Canards and Splitters
What are canards?
Canards, also known as dive planes, are small triangular winglets that are mounted to the front bumpers and/or fenders of a vehicle. Canards act like mini-wings, interacting with airflow to produce small pressure differentials across their surfaces.
What do splitters do?
A car splitter works just as it sounds… It splits the air a car drives into and forces the high pressure air up and the low pressure air passes underneath the car. The high pressure air then pushes down on the car, resulting in downforce and increased traction.
