After a brief presention of the general problems encountered by the car builders, we will focus on two vehicles: Peugeot 3008 (monospace) and the Renault Trafic (van). Experiment are performed at real scale in the industrial wind tunnel S2A at Paris. We will present results about the road effect, static pressure measurements around the models, development of boundary layers, mean and fluctuating wake properties.
