What is V in the auto.wind-resistance?

Rate of movement. 1 m/s = 3.6 km/h = 2.237 mph.

What is Cd in the auto.wind-resistance?

Dimensionless aerodynamic drag. Lower = more streamlined. Typical car: 0.25–0.45. Sphere: 0.47. Flat plate: 1.28.

Two-dimensional surface extent (m²). For complex shapes, break into simpler sub-shapes and sum.

Aerodynamic resistance opposing motion. Drag = 0.5 × rho × v^2 × Cd × A. Doubles with every 41% increase in speed (because it scales with v^2).
