Abstract
When we take account of the environment surrounding, the development of vehicle with low energy consumption is required. Under these conditions the solar car races which develop the better performance energy are held. In these races, the factors which decide the winner are how the air resistance can be reduced. In addition, since vehicles for a solar car race are a lightweight vehicle, crosswind stability of the vehicle is important.
