  • Patent number: 3951222
    Abstract: An conventional size automobile having lightweight monocoque construction with the outer skin shaped to form a clean external body envelope. Forces due to air flow around the body shape are used to stabilize the designed vehicle load at desired speeds. The angle of attack of the body through the air can be regulated by individual adjustment at each of the four wheels in the vertical position of the vehicle body. Unsprung weight is reduced by providing individual hydraulic drive on each of the four wheels. The hydraulic drive system also operates as a braking system.
