What Is Roll-Down Testing ?
• The vehicle is rolled down (i.e. without engine power) from a high speed (100km/h) to a low speed (e.g. 20 km/h) on a flat road.

So What?
• Want to determine the nature of the drag force speed dependence.
• Par?cular drag mechanisms are modeled by par?cular speed dependence.
• Therefore it might be possible to quan?fy the the various drag force levels using simple tests.
