    It's incredibly stupid to remove substrings from headlines and expect that what comes back will be an improvement or make sense.

    It is not in the article and I have no data to quote but I would think this would be a good "think of the children" moment.

      Except that people do "think of the children" when buying larger vehicles, since they believe children should be in the big safe vehicles and never outside as a pedestrian.

    Tall vehicle hoods also increase the drag coefficient. Every deviation from the teardrop shape increases the drag coefficient.

    An intake scoop in the hood would qualify as actual air cooling.
