Project Summary
Aeroflow is developing aerodynamic ‘shape-shifting’ HGV trailers to cut excess fuel burn. Traditional box-shaped trailers are built to maximise cargo capacity, but their aerodynamically inefficient shape becomes a drawback when the trailer is only partially loaded or completely empty. By adjusting dynamically to the unused space, these trailers reduce drag to improve fuel efficiency: delivering cost savings, increasing range, and lowering emissions.
