Dimples on golf balls are designed to reduce air resistance and improve aerodynamics. They work by creating a layer of air around the ball, reducing drag and allowing the ball to travel further. Additionally, they generate lift by modifying the airflow, which helps keep the ball in the air for longer. Without this, a golf ball would travel half the distance. In 2012, drivers on the MythBusters show wanted to explore whether a similar surface on a car would improve its efficiency. They covered a vehicle with smooth clay and then added dimples. The tests showed that although the standard car and the dimpled car consumed 26 mpg (9.05 l/100 km), the dimpled model achieved a more efficient consumption of 29.6 mpg (7.95 l/100 km), reducing fuel consumption by 12.5%. Although the results are optimistic, the vehicle's additional weight and other structural challenges limit its implementation.
