The Kamm K3 was based on a chassis of the Mercedes-Benz W136 170V, but with a streamlined body. It was developed by
Wunibald Kamm as a research-vehicle for aerodynamics. It features a coefficient of drag of cd = 0.36-0.37.
(0.37: measurements in the VW climatic windtunnel in 1979, 0.36: measurements by Daimler-Benz.)
