Who says they don't know. Lutz is talking about this now, but they probably figured this out a while ago. I'm sure that as soon as Lutz decided to seriously pursue this thing they put it in a windtunnel. Concept cars don't have to be practical, they only have to look good. No need to waste money by throwing a concept into a windtunnel.
