The Mercedes-Benz Concept IAA is a digital transformer as slippery as soap, as it has a record low drag coefficient. The Germans presented the intelligent aerodynamic car at the Frankfurt Motor Show, and the four-seater coupe, as expected, garnered tremendous interest. It went from idea to concept in a mere 11 months, which is a reflection of the advancement of technology, which practically cut this process in half. Now a large part is done by advanced computer simulations and "filigree" digital plans. Mercedes is therefore betting on smart factories, but still "human-centric", and cooperation with robots will be closer. And the first child of this vision is the Mercedes-Benz Concept IAA study.
Artificial and human intelligence they are not like a dog and a cat. If it seemed to displace human power robotics, but the future lies in their close cooperation. It was also created according to this philosophy Mercedes a vision of the future, a study Mercedes-Benz Concept IAA (Intelligent Aerodynamic Car), a digital transformer, one of the main attractions Frankfurt Motor Show. It grew from idea to concept in just 11 months and is champion of aerodynamics, as it has a record low drag coefficient (0,19).
He has the title to thank a physically elongated rear (additional by 390 millimeters) and active electric aero panels front that spring into action at the push of a button or at speed greater than 80 km/h. The wings on the bumpers of the car are adjusted by 25 millimeters at the front, and by 20 millimeters at the rear they improve the air flow around the tires, and the rims are leveled. This is the design electric four-seat coupe leans against Mercedes' largest and most expensive production vehicles and predicts the appearance of the brand's next-generation luxury models, in particular class S. It measures 5040 in length (5430 with extension), 1995 in width and 1305 millimeters in height.

It drives him plug-in hybrid assembly with rated power 279 horses (205 kW), and his speed meter only stops at 250 km/h. The electric range varies according to its appearance. If it's made "for the better", then that's it 62 kilometers, if he dons an aerodynamic look, his range is 68 km (drops into the air only 28g/km of carbon dioxide). And if we conclude with the words of the chairman of the Mercedes board and the first man of the brand from Stuttgart, Dieter Zetsche. He says that something is very clear to him: "The IAA concept and the future of Mercedes have at least something in common. They both look damn good!”
