If you live in a windy area, one of the most important things you will look for in a used car is the ability to stay stable on the road even on the windiest days. This means you want a used car with great aerodynamic design. The last thing you want is to be stuck in a boxy car that shudders and changes direction every time a strong strong gust of wind hits.
So, for those of you who live in windy areas, we've taken a look at a few aerodynamic vehicles and identified the Audi A6, BMW-i8, Mazda3, Mercedes Benz B-Class, and Nissan GT-R. the best used cars for people who live in windy areas.
Audi A6: You might argue that the Audi A6 doesn't look much different from many other Audis, but you'll notice the difference in windy conditions. This is because the A6 is very aerodynamic - even better than the A7 - so it moves with very little drag in windy conditions.
bmw i8: The BMW-i8 features aerodynamically optimized alloy wheels, air vents in the front bumper, numerous airflow grooves and a perfectly sealed underbody. All this creates a car that will provide a reliable and safe ride even on the windiest days.
Mazda3: Mazda3 is a great car with smooth lines. It provides very little drag and the basic design alone makes this car very stable in high winds. The icing on the cake is the front bumper grille's active louvres, which automatically direct airflow around the car when the engine doesn't need to be cooled.
Mercedes Benz B-ClassA: Don't let the looks fool you. This car looks bulky, but its designers have spent a lot of time in wind tunnels optimizing each circuit and making sure each circuit is optimized for wind resistance. You will get a great ride no matter how windy.
Nissan GT-R: When you think about how much downforce this rig "should" need to stay in contact with the road, the low drag it provides is just amazing. It's all because of the aerodynamic fenders, rear diffuser and front bumper design.
We know that some of the cars on this list may not be all that common in your area, but if you find any of them used, you'll get a good and safe ride in the wind.
