The smooth body was came from designer’s serious study. Designers paid lots effort to get a impossible objective—CD 0.29. The great result was came from smooth windows, smooth door handle and sloping (斜的) front head. 這部車非常良好的空氣力學設計，它有平順的車體，設計師在設計時，對影響空氣力學的關鍵極為注意，如平滑的車窗，平整的車門把手和傾斜的車頭設計等等

From 0(zero) to 100 kilometer just need 11.8 second. For the handling, the Feeling 101’s suspension was so hard and the driving feel just liked roadster. This kind of sports suspension attractive some hot blood consumers. They really enjoyed driving vehicle..
