In this study, the spoiler effect in a different angle of attacks that makes the maximum downforce is conveyed. Two different facilities are utilized to set up the experiment. A wind tunnel is used to measure the downforce and drag force, and a water tunnel is used to observe the velocity profile and flow field visualization. The result revealed that a 12° angle of attack is the optimal angle for designing the spoiler. Twelve degrees angle of attack provided the highest downforce. This downforce can improve the stability of high-speed sports car without increasing much drag. Compared to the angle of attack of 5°, the downforce of the angle of attack equal to 12° increases 233%, but the drag force only increases by 15% in wind tunnel experiments.

Significant aspects of the consequences of global warming and some measures that can be undertaken in order to reduce energy consumption and harmful emissions have been presented. The most important actions I this field are related to the renewal of the design of automobile vehicles and their components. A theoretical survey has been carried out in two main areas: invesitigating possibilities of improving the operational characteristics and the design parameters of transmissions and gearboxes, aiming to identify the areas of future dissertation research. A systematization of the reviewed scientific publications has been carried out. Main areas in which additional research can be carried out, related to the specific features of the Bulgarian industry and the state of the available cars in usage, have been identified.
