WIND DEFLECTOR IN CLASSIC CARS
When the weather slowly becomes friendlier again, they are taken out of the garage again. The airstream is enjoyed faster and faster. We're talking about classic convertibles, the symbol of the warm season. As nice as the breeze can be on the first few journeys, after a while most passengers also want a little comfort and protection. Even in warm temperatures, it can get chilly in the wind. This is where a wind deflector can help.
What is a wind deflector?
A wind deflector is an additional piece of equipment that is usually used for convertibles and protects the occupants from the wind. For classic cars, which often have steeper windshields and side windows, a wind deflector should be fitted close behind the driver's seat and relatively low. As there are often no preparations for fitting a wind deflector in classic cars, clamp brackets are preferred which do not alter or damage the vehicle in its original condition.
A wind deflector for classic cars can be made from various materials, which can differ in shape, size and material. A wind deflector made of acrylic glass can improve the appearance of a classic car and give it a classic, elegant look.

Airstream and air turbulence
In a convertible, the airstream plays a key role in the driving experience. When the vehicle is in motion, an airflow is created that can be both pleasant and challenging. The airstream can cause air turbulence inside the convertible, particularly around the head and shoulders of the occupants. This air turbulence can vary in intensity depending on driving speed and vehicle configuration.A wind deflector is a practical addition for convertibles that serves to interrupt the airstream and reduce air turbulence. By installing the wind deflector behind the front seats, it deflects the airstream and directs a greater proportion of it past the vehicle interior. This significantly reduces the airflow in the car, resulting in a more comfortable driving experience.
There are various types of wind deflectors, which can differ in terms of materials, shapes and installation options. Some wind deflectors are made of acrylic glass and can be transparent, allowing a clear view, while others can be made of opaque materials. The choice of wind deflector depends on the driver's personal preference, the type of vehicle and other individual factors.
In summary, the wind is an essential part of the convertible driving experience, but it can be disruptive due to air turbulence in the interior. A wind deflector can help to reduce this turbulence and improve driving comfort by deflecting the airflow and directing it past the vehicle interior.
