Can MG 5 be equipped with a tail wing?

The MG 5 of Pacific Auto Network can be equipped with a tail wing, but it needs to be filed. MG 5 is a compact coupe owned by MG. Its length, width and height are 4675mm, 1842mm and 1473mm respectively, and its wheelbase is 2680 mm. It's a four-door five-seat car.

What is the tail of a front-wheel drive car?

The engine, gearbox, steering gear and heavy frame structure are all concentrated in the front of the car, which leads to the vertical pressure (grip/friction) obtained by the front center of mass and front wheel of the car. At the rear, only the body structure and internal configuration increase the downforce of the rear wheel, which will cause the friction and grip of the rear wheel to be less than that of the front wheel; Then when the vehicle is in a corner, it may be that the lateral force is too large, which is easy to be greater than the grip of the rear wheel, resulting in the tail swing of the vehicle being out of control.

The function of the "tail wing" is to increase the downward pressure on the rear of the car. To put it bluntly, it is to enhance the grip of the rear wheel! -Front-wheel-drive vehicles should increase the downforce of the front wheels, because the sinking of the rear will cause the center of gravity of the vehicle to move backwards; As a "driven wheel", the grip of the rear wheel is of little significance. The key is that the grip of the rear wheel will increase, while the grip of the front wheel will decrease. At this time, even if the wheel does not slip, there will be a great power loss on the wheel. For example, if the vehicle accelerates too fast during driving, the front wheel may slip due to excessive torque, and the probability of the vehicle losing control will be higher.

MG 6_ comes standard with the modified style of "Auto Parts Wind". Both rear drive and four-wheel drive are equipped with tail wings, which is understandable, but it is a bit embarrassing to use tail wings for front drive. The so-called "sports encirclement" seriously lowers the temperament of MG 6. The standard painted version of MG6 is somewhat British and elegant, and even smacks of "Little Jaguar". The overall temperament of the new sports version is almost the same as that of the modified Civic. However, the problem of MG6 is not limited to this. Its new "DCT280" seven-speed dual clutch seems to make a joke of "not too big or too small".
