Case Study: Kuda Automotive improves fuel efficiency and reduces drag with Bramble CFD

Kuda Automotive - Customer Case Study

Kuda Automotive, a leading UK supplier of commercial vehicle aerodynamics, needed to understand how their iAM Air Management kit affected drag on different vehicle combinations. Their challenge was finding cost-effective and intuitive automotive CFD software that avoided high fees but still delivered high-fidelity results, moving beyond expensive physical testing.

Using bramble's automotive CFD software, Kuda ran precise simulations with 3D scanned parts and manufacturer models. The bramble solution provided clear visual insights into airflow, demonstrating how their kit reduced turbulence. The results showed an 11% reduction in overall drag and up to a 5.5% improvement in fuel efficiency, saving the company significant money on their development process.
